@ravigupta@mastodon.social @Daytonlowell@mastodon.social The name is right there, but Apple hasn’t named a new product with the i prefix since Steve Jobs was arrive to name the tablet “iPad”. They could bring it back for iBook here, but that doesn't seem right to me. They want you to know it's an iPhone.

@gruber@mastodon.social @ravigupta@mastodon.social yeah, the iPhone is quite possibly the most popular consumer electronic device of all time. They have to use the iPhone name.

@gruber@mastodon.social @ravigupta@mastodon.social @Daytonlowell@mastodon.social Perhaps the last (so far) iProduct was iCloud, announced by Steve Jobs I think just a few months before his death. (a year after iPad)
