Odd Timing

Considering ad campaign for the Motorola Droid, it seems odd they'd release this on the same day and give it a name that includes Droid.

I presume, they'll call it the Eris most of the time, but why open themselves up to the confusion. Maybe the name is the key. Eris was the Goddess of Discord.

Yeah, I've since seen that too. So what's the Motorola going to be called?

I'd still like to know what they were thinking in calling the Hero, the Eris. Don't these people look anything up? Why not just call it the Warmonger.

Come to think of it "warmonger" might be kind of a cool name for a cell phone.

Funny... I just read the heading and my first though was.. "aww they named the phone love, no, wait, erotic love is eros.. eris is strife! wtf"

oddest name for a phone I can think of. of course it does sound kind of cool, and not that many people are familiar wiht obsure greek gods.
