While there’s no official release window for Microsoft’s motion-sensing camera interface, Project Natal – heck, there’s not even an official name of the thing yet! – comments made by Microsoft CEO (and professional stretcher) Steve Ballmer indicate a 2010 launch. TGDaily reports that “Ballmer stated openly during a speech on the recession to those in attendance at the Executives Club in Chicago, a new Xbox 360 will hit the store shelves in 2010.” The report never mentions “Natal” and refers instead to a “console” featuring a built-in camera.
