endimion is right: Kinect already has a "Killer App", and the Killer App of that piece of hardware with it's super-expensive depth-sensing technology is voice recognition, which would in fact only require a 1$ microphone.

It's been the killer app with Kinect 1.0 already, and it's going to be the killer app with Kinect 2.0, because Kinect 2.0 is in fact just a minor improvement over Kinect 1.0, and thus will not allow for revolutionary new ideas/concepts that just weren't possible with Kinect 1.0 at all.
