Which Microsoft Kinect to use

Well... the title pretty much says it all. I'm fairly certain that the Kinect we received from FIRST was stolen, and I suddenly need one to begin learning vision processing. The Kinect for Windows is a $250 sensor (which we can only buy online), and the Kinect for 360 is $99 (which we can get anywhere). I don't know which one was in the KOP the year we got our first one. We intend to use OpenNI and OpenCV for the programming (not the Windows SDK). I'm not certain if one is better than the other, or if the Kinect for 360 includes a USB cable. Any help picking one would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
