According to Microsoft watcher Bink.nu the Kinect has shown up for pre-order at the Microsoft store for $149.00.

Pre-orders are covered by our Pre-Order Price Guarantee and can be reviewed, updated, or canceled at any time before pre-order items are released.
Please see our Pre-Order Policy for more information.

I can almost hear the prognosticators hitting the keyboards to tell us all how stupid Microsoft is trying to sell it at this price. Too bad they aren’t willing to engage their brains before typing. But then I guess that wouldn’t make for great headlines and pageviews.
