As a mentor for a beta team, I can tell you that support for the Kinect has been discontinued for the roboRIO(I think their reasoning was that it was too much of a hassle to keep up with Microsoft's updates). Keep this in mind as you plan for the coming year.

EDIT: As Alan pointed out below, this is not entirely correct. The Driver Station will not support the Kinect, but that doesn't really answer your question. Apologies for giving the wrong impression.
