Video of Android 2.2(Froyo) Running on Motorola Droid

Is it just me, or am i the only one who dislikes the name "Droid 2" or any "sequel" for a device or object? It really bugs me that a name is speculated to be so uncreative as that.

i.e. LG EnV 2, EnV 3, blah, blah. I liked how it went from V to EnV, but anything after that seemed very gimmicky. We don't have cars going from MR2 to MR3, Gallardo to Gallardo 2, etc. Leave the sequels to movies.

I figured there's nothing else to add to a thread about 2.2 since it's all speculation anyways...

I like the Droid 2, it shows that it is a direct relative to the Droid. Also its just a name, who cares?


As for 2.2, this look so fast and awesome!

BMW Z3 --> Z4
Land Rover LR3 --> LR4
Ford Mustang --> Mustang II --> Mustang

Sorry, I just had to!

I see your point, but don't know why you're sorry? LOL. I still stand by my opinion. I guess I just didn't like how LG seemed to get lazy with their naming after the EnV. I'm also surprised you missed Mitsubishi's Lancer Evo III-X.

You lost me at Mustang II...... :eek: That was NOT a Mustang... :mad:

Kinda why I think the "sequel" thing is a bad idea. Ford probably did too.

Why does it feel like every thread here becomes a conversation about cars? ;)

Because most of us here are of the male gender, and cars and males normally go hand in hand. Jay Leno owns an airplane hanger full of cars.

Seriously though, I don't think I've seen the other car threads - I think I'll go scour the forums now.
