iPad 3? iPad HD? iPad? Does it Matter?

"To hear critics rail and complain, Apple fell on it face yesterday when it failed to differentiate the new iPad with the "3″ or "HD" moniker that it had been rumored to hold in the days before its official unveiling."

I tend to agree with the author, that the name of the device is the iPad, drop the "new" and let's move on. I don't see the differentiation between MacBooks, other than Pro or Air. And I see the iPhone going the same route eventually. What are your thoughts?

Oh, What's in a Name Anyway?

"Apple's uncanny ability to get its own way goes up another notch in the legendary stakes as it does an unknown deal with Fujitsu to assign the entire interest in the iPad name over to the Captains of Crunch!"

This story is week old or thereabouts, but I find it funny that Apple went ahead with the name of the product and promoting it based on a name they didn't even own at the time! According to the article the deal to purchase the name from Fujitsu (or for Fujitsu to let Apple use it if that is the case) wasn't even a done deal until about March 17th. That is cutting it rather close.
