IBM Kinect: They sold it off to a little known company that nobody heard of.
HP Kinect: After performing an action, it changes its mind.
Apple iKinect: It just works, but has only half the features at twice the price.
Linux Knct: You have to manually install the drivers, because the hardware manufacturer doesn't use open source.
Acer Kinect: It records video at 5 fps, but it's solid.
Alienware Kinect: It's double the price, big and heavy, but is great for gaming. Your office workers remark that it reminds them of Darth Vader.
Nintendo Kinect: You wave the Kinect around instead of placing it on the laptop.
------------------------------------
On a more serious note, IMO the voice recognition part of Kinect would be a lot more useful than the camera part of kinect.
