Are those awesome or what! Clever use of PVC piping there. I was also impressed by the facade and bookshelf construction.
This is giving me some ideas. :D

Natal is just a high resolution camera...

I think, though, that this is simply not true. It's a high resolution camera, combined with an infrared projector and some sensor of some kind, I think. It also has a mic on it (not sure if the Eye Toy has a mic . . . never used it)
And the software, of course, can make an enormous difference because it's not just a single piece of retail software. We're talking about the APIs and libraries or whatever (I'm not a computer programmer so shouldn't throw terms like that around, especially when I'm talking to a programmer) that determine the device's potential functionality for every game.
Even looking at the hardware by itself, it is probably not a lot like the Eye Toy. But the hardware/software combo pretty clearly set it apart. I mean, maybe it'll be stupid (it's clearly Wii envy, and most of what the Wii does is pretty awful), but I suspect it's not what you think it is.
