Buy New or Upgrade?

Cool: I can spend more to upgrade my current Xbox to the new Kinnect Bundle specs than I would buying the bundle.

Well, that's not quite accurate. For the Xbox 360 Kinnect bundle, the pre-order price is $299. To upgrade my Xbox 360's hard drive and add a Kinnect controller (?), it would only cost me $250. For $49, I get a console that's not a year-plus old, though.
