In the short term it could have a very good, although not exceptional effect, so I voted 200-250k, but I'm not persuaded of the soundness of this choice in the long term. In the short term it will provide a lower entry price that's surely needed, but that would have naturally come later thanks to cost reduction, here I suspect MS misinterpreted users' refusal of always-on kinect as a refusal tout court of the device. Splitting the user base, any kinect support from third parties in the games developed from now on will inevitably become totally optional and possibly lame, damaging what was meant to make XBOne different.
MS looks suicidally ruining the three needed and justified 180s, about used games, always online and always-on kinect, making follow kindergarten kid-like spiteful ones, removing cool online features that could have been left as an incentive to connect the XBOne, without for this disabling essential functions for those that cannot or don't want to connect, and this time removing kinect from entry-level models, and so killing it, because most users don't want it always-on. Maybe there are still too many vengeful Ballmer minions in MS top management, someone should teach them that's just normal and totally fine that people approve company policies just partially instead of totally, and that "punishing" them for this is really the wrongest reaction.
