As much as Google would like to protest that they are not launching a gPhone because they wish to focus on The Open Handset Alliance and “Android“, we have found out that it’s actually because ‘gPhone’ is a terrible name for a phone product.
Everyone knows that the closer the first letter of somethings name is to the end of the alphabet, the cooler that thing will be as a result. Based on this scale the iPhone is clearly cooler than the gPhone. So all they need to do is call it the zGoogle or zPhone and they are onto a sure winner…. then again, the Zune starts with a ‘z’ and look where that is in the cool ratings!
In any case Google are sure to wow us with their upcoming tech, but lets just hope it doesn’t have as many holes in it as Open Social eh?
UPDATE: Seems that opensocial has been hacked again!

Pondering over a cool name is okay though delaying a product launch because of this is absurd. They could have launched a ’suggest a name’ contest and the community would have pitched in with a cool name.

Well I’m sure they have delayed the launch to develop a proper internet platform for mobiles. They can actually name the phone as phoogle which syncs with their website. The whole world is waiting for the mobile revolution.

Whats in a name. Anything they throw up is going to get gobbled up. Or it could also be a glitch in the hardware they uncovered. Everythings hush hush at the moment.
Btw opensocial needs to get their act together.

Sorry to disagree, Gphone sounds a cool name to me. Haha. But more than a name, it should be at least something useful with full packed features. Open Handset Alliance is a cool project hope its systems won’t get hacked as easily as First OpenSocial. Lol.
