The device is supposed to go on sale around Q2, April 1 2016 is the target date, and should cost the company a mere few pennies to make.
Apple wanted to get into it, but it appeared that they would have raised the final price to about 50x more, and would have replaced the Kinect with a simple '1 button fits all'.
Google and Amazon basically voted out Apple, since Jobs wasn't there to defend the company's viewpoint.

I heard the release date was moved up to February 30, 2016.
