Well if they make new names every time then it wouldn't be the same product and advertising would be difficult.

Name recognition, most of these companies come out with so many different products, that the name is pretty much the identifying factor. On the subject of the iPad, you're really starting to see 'fashion' in technology these days, and it's sickingly ironic. It's just under a year since the first came out, and now the 'new season' has arrived. Already auction sites are being overwhelmed with people trying to get rid of their first generation iPad, lest they be seen with the outdated model.

The best deals can be found here. That's apparently how I got an iPhone 3 for cheap.

Steve Jobs is an a****** who exploits the impoverished of third world countries, but we don't care about them, we only care about Steve Jobs because he has cancer.
Also, Apple's clientele is hipster douchebags.

Then Tyli, tell me, what are they going to name their consoles? Most consoles, and I mean most consoles, when they have a "succesor", they have a part or all of the name and they add something. Playstation Xbox DS Gameboy NES ^ These are few of them, and all of them have succesors or precedors with a similarity in names, k~?

I was saying that numbers are being overused.

Numbers are abstract and were created by humans, therefore they have no standing in the concrete world.
Yet we need them to differentiate s*** sequels from good prequels.

There is no point.

If you don't have something, that's why you need it!
