Well I've danced about for the 360 Kinect once or twice, but I'm not flapping around in front of my PC for anything or anybody. Big chair in a small room.

This is clearly more for robotics devs than gaming, as the simplest(?), cheapest(??), easiest(!) 3D optical input system available with various other useful functions

Really smart move, as steam boxes are going to start rolling out in the coming months.

Gonna be awesome once windows games start supporting it :)
