Are we finally beating the Japanese?

After all, we have improved our electronics so much in the past 7 years. The Japanese could never come up with anything that could compete with the iPod. Also, the Japanese never came up with a computer and a computer software (Macintosh, Windows, Microsoft, ect...). With the new iPhone out, the Japanese should be in a HUGE puttle of embarresment. The Xbox has kicked the Playstation's and Nintendo's *** in games, but still have good graphics and have the world wide used Xbox live. The Playstation has something like that, but is only for Socom, which Socom is American made and is the best game for Playstation. Also for cars, Ford has recently beaten Nissan and is barely just above Toyota in quality. Our military has always been far superrior to the Japanese, so that's not something to really be excited about. Also, Bose and THX beat the Japanese sound systems by a lot and are used more than Japanese systems. Anybody disagree?
