"Move needs batteries to play", Move controllers are like Dualshock 3, with build in rechargeable battery, just plug in USB cable and are good to go, no need to buy batteries like Wii or Xbox controllers.

I think kinnect is alot better than the move especially in terms of what you pay for.
1) One ps move bundle is $99 but thats for one person only where as kinect is $150 for 4 people.
2) Quite a few games like archery, boxing or gladiator type games requires two move peripheral per person which means you will be spending at 99 * 2 which is $198 per person. If those types of games are multiplayer and you have 3 mates at that time than you need to buy 6 peripherals which is 99* 6 which is $594 which can get you a wii and a 360 slim lol. If you want to play 3 players you only need to buy one kinect peripheral. Also whats funny is that the bundle comes with move sport and in that game you have sports like archery and boxing which requires two peripherals but you only have one LOL.
3) Plus ps move is a more accurate but a pricey wii remote.
You were think sony would have learned their lesson for pricing their ps3 so high . I guess ignorance a bliss
For me only one thing is important, i dont care about design, number of players and all that.
ONLY one thing...
GAMES!!!!
So for me its going to be Move, unless Kinect will show something more then fitness, dancing, jumping and molesting animals.

Regarding your points:
1) Kinect is for 2 people only unless you have sources it supports 4 players
2) Additional PS Move controllers cost $49.99. The $99.99 starter kit you mention comes with the PS Eye, 1 motion controller, and 1 navigation controller. Doing the math, for 2 players or the boxing game requiring 2 motion controllers would bump the Move price to around $150. For 4 player functionality, you are looking at 3 additional PS Move motion controllers @ $49.99 per controller bumping the total price to $250 ($99 starter kit plus 3 additional PS move controllers @ $49.99 each)
3) Correct
As for pricing, it is a tad deceptive on both Sony and Microsoft's part. As an owner of a non-Slim console, I would be paying an additional $25-50 to make my 360 Kinectable. For new consumers, they would also have to purchase a $50 Xbox Live Gold membership if they wanted to Kinect online. So, minus the console cost, you are looking at $200 to get the most out of Kinect.
Here it is in easier on the eyes terms (assuming 4 player for Move and full online Kinect experience):
Sony Move - $250 ($99.99 starter kit plus 3 additional Move motion controllers at $49.99 each)
Microsoft Kinect - $200-250 (Kinect priced $150 plus $50 Xbox Live Gold membership plus the additional cost to make a non-Slim 360 Kinectable)

1) Firstly you can't assume that you only need one eye toy for 4 players unless you can provide me with source.
2) It hasn't been decided on how many players kinnect can support but so far its 2 active players and can scana up to six players. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/kinect-supports-two-active-players
Reports form microsoft said that it would allow for 4 people . I guess for tat we have to wait till the release date.

3) my point still remain is that if you want to play a two player boxing you would still have to spend $150 per person because you need two set of controller move games we have seen like archery , gladiator , boxing they all need at least two controllers per person which is ridiculous in my opinion.

You are wrong on that one. Sony has confirmed that one eye toy cannot 4 players in full configuration meaning each players has a wand and nun chuk accessory. You can only have two wands or one wand and one nunchuk for one eye toy.
This means that you do after all need to buy a additional bundle for multiplayer games like boxing , archery and so on.

Well that does play a key part because maybe some of those awesome hardcore games may required more than one controller . Would you still by it ??? Plus games like socom is meh . Gran turismo 5 is best played with a racing wheel plus most us would have finished playing heavy rain by now therefore playing with the move is just stupid.
The Move is a pricy Wii-mote? Yes, it is in essence a Wii-mote, I won't even try to contest that but do people know how expensive a Wii-mote still is?
The Move will cost roughly 500NOK per unit here, which is stiff pricing for a controller imo. The Wii-mote will cost you; Remote: 400NOK, Nunchuck: 250NOK, Motion Pluss: 250NOK, Charger: 400NOK. That's 1300NOK for one unit so the Move doesn't appear to me a pricy Wii-mote, it appears to be a cheaper Wii-mote to me. You don't need the charger, but you'll rack up costs for changing batteries anyway and you don't need Motion Pluss, but its kind of a vital bit to make the Wii-mote stand up to its more modern competition in terms of precision. And even without the charger and Motion Pluss, the Wii-mote costs a lot more per unit than Move.
By all means, all else if fair but to call the Move a "pricy" Wii-mote is utter bollocks.
You forget to that add that some move game requires two wands which would certainly increase the price. Don't forget if you were to play a four player multiplayer than each individual would need to purchase a move bundle which according to you is 500 nok . Also what happens if a move game requires a two wand and a nunchuk?? That means that the individual would need to purchase another eye toy camera. Plus how do charge the move?? I agree that Wii is pricey but you only need one sensor for 4 players unlike the move plus all wii games requires only one controller with the nunchuk. Also with the wii remote you don't really need to get the motion plus accessory.
