Since this is new tech which can be used in infinite different ways, do they have or are they hiring innovation staff to create new things instead of just programmers to recreate what has already been done and reducing Natal to just a new type of controller? Natal can open new doors... I know of things that can be done new myself, but they have to pay to play.
