The truth is it doesn't matter who is first to bring an idea to market. It is really who brings the first mass marketable version of a product to market that people remember. The iPod was not the first mp3 player, it was the first one that was easy to use, had software that made it easy to get a lot of music for legally and looked slick. Same with Kinect, Same with iPad, Same with Wii, same with Facebook, etc.
