No, but there's a reason why in most other markets, people buy & compare. Microsoft's first offering wasn't enough to make many even consider it. The 2G models have garnered a much more positive feeling. iPods are popular but I don't think they're any longer the "OMG I HAVE TO HAVE IT" item that they were. They're what people tend to buy because of the name recognition.
Sony didn't stand pat on the PS3, yet somehow the XBox & Wii have left it in the dust. Unthinkable a few years ago. I don't believe Microsoft will ever leave Apple in the dust...but when I say the writing is on the wall, I mean that the time is close that Microsoft will be a very serious #2 in this market.
