Also the big companies are changing their names all the time. My building society has now had three or four in the decade I've lived here. Mergers and buy-ups I think. <br /><br />I think Amazon goes overboard by just having Kindle. Keeping the name but adding a number is a good way. You know what an iPhone is, and then you just have to find out the differences between a "3s", a "4", and a "4s".Eolake Stobblehousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07126147415891586345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-485455051458949924.post-4227175037498343002011-11-14T22:31:15.978+00:002011-11-14T22:31:15.978+00:00Another kind of fragmentation is with all of the b...Another kind of fragmentation is with all of the brand names. HTC is particularly bad bout this. If you bought a Hero or a Droid Eris and kept it for a year or so, you might want a new Eris or Hero. That's not possible, they never made a follow up model for either phone.<br /><br />With most Android brands, every six months there are new names to learn. Contrast that with the iPhone: if you bought it and liked it, go back and ask for a new one and you will get one.<br /><br />Samsung is trying to establish the Galaxy brand over time, but if you like your older Galaxy phone and go back and ask for a new Galaxy, they might give you a tablet!<br /><br />Ps. off topic, but how about calling a 4 or 5 inch tablet a tablette? :-)Brucenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-485455051458949924.post-11549317005499932342011-11-14T08:01:25.397+00:002011-11-14T08:01:25.397+00:00Eolake said...

It is so very undefinable, and yet it's there, and we can lose it, and possibly regain it."<br /><br />I sure hope that that is a possibility! :-DTC [Girl]https://www.blogger.com/profile/13627383459407464083noreply@blogger.com
