Sign up with MS to get Kinect pricing as it’s announced
Microsoft has yet to announce a price for Kinect, but if you are one of those types who just need to be informed of something the second it’s announced – Microsoft’s got you covered.
According to MS’s Xbox for All Facebook page, those who “like” the page or sign up to get a mobile announcement by texting KINECT to 30360 will be some of the first to know once the price is announced.
That is, if an email, ad, or newspaper article doesn’t leak the information first – in which case, the internets will be all over it in seconds and liking a Facebook page or signing up for a text will have been in vain.
Still, sign up if you like.
However, it will be announced before too long, we reckon. So we’d just keep our shorts on a bit long. Yes. Shorts.
Kinect is out in November.

Microsoft is either teasing the price because:
A) The price is lower than speculated ($99 is sweet spot, could end up $129; $149 is just plain ridiculous for what you get)
B) Keep people focusing on their product, therefore relevant
C) Teasing a price to see how people will react to it
My guess, anyway.

what happened with that article about Naber claiming that Move is simply a distraction from Kinect?

hmm, maybe whoever posted it, i 4get who, decided it was not really relevant, after reading both, the one recently posted here seems a little out of context
