There are only 2 versions of the Slim and they are the 4gb & the 250gb versions.The only difference is the size of the hard drives.Most people would recommend the 250gb as it gives you more options i.e. downloading games/updates from xbox live, storing games,music,videos etc. The 250gb is a bit more expensive but cheaper than the cost of upgrading the 4gb at a later date should you need to.
The only thing to watch out for with the Kinect is space. You need about 10 x 10ft ideally and so if you don't have the room it's useless.
As regards the prices,these change all the time,and so you should check out special offers regularly @ the following outlets : Game, Gamestop, HMV, Xtravision & Smyths. They all do special offers and at different times and can be checked online.

Please do have a check on amazon.co.uk before buying from here,
I was looking to buy the kinect sensor alone(150Euros here in Ire), & found its 30euros cheaper(120 Euros incl. delivery) @ amazon.co.uk.
They accept irish cr.cards as well.

Also I dunno if its any good to you here but theres a Maxol garage in Artane, opposite Artane Castle, that have Kinect for 75 quid! How a garage can sell it half the price of Gamestop I have no idea!

If your playing Kinect and space is an issue, check this thing out :
