Repeating a false mantra doesn't make it true.
Go to the chipworks website and take a good look at the teardown of the Kinect2. That stuff is VERY complex to build, it has manufacturing costs considerably above $150, possibly well over $200 for the first batches. Some weeks ago there was a wildly discussed statement in the net that Kinect2 costs are comparable to the costs of the Box itself. After looking at the complete teardown, I quite agree with that statement.
