Windows Kinect Driver?

I have seen the open source Linux drivers for the Kinect cameras, but haven't seen any Windows based open drivers yet. Am I missing something, or have they not sprung up yet? I don't have a Kinect yet, but would still like to take a look at the drivers to see what type of information is coming across the USB connection.

Any pointers or links would be appreciated! Also, does anyone have any interesting results to talk about on their own Kinect apps???

After looking a little more, I found a website dedicated to the open source drivers for all three of the major platforms: www.openkinect.org. It appears that there is a link for a windows driver if you dig into the links for building the libraries.

Any other links floating around that anyone has found?

I came across this site:

I haven't tried it, though. And I don't know how this is related to OpenKinect or if it's usable at all. But since you were asking merely for links, I thought I'd post it.
