HMV appears to have let the cat out of the bag when it comes to the launch date of Microsoft's Xbox 360 Kinect peripheral, listing the device on its website with a UK release of 19th November 2010.
Microsoft revealed pricing of the motion-sensing add-on last week, along with the announcement of a new Xbox 360 bundle to coincide with it. But it stopped short of stating exactly when we could get our hands on it. Other retailers have not listed a date on their product pages.
What's more, if HMV's date is to be believed and isn't just a placeholder, it would mean that Kinect will be hitting UK stores about two weeks after the US gets to see it. Microsoft has already announced a 4th November launch for North America.
Pricing on the HMV website matches that of Microsoft's previous announcement - £129.99.
