Google Steals Name From Sony Ericsson

The new bully in the technology world is flexing its muscle

clipped from androidelectronics.com These days if you say “Nexus” the only thing you’re bound to think of is Google’s Nexus One Android Phone by HTC – ESPECIALLY if you’re the tech-loving type. But less than 2 months ago the name Nexus meant something very different to the Android world. That’s because Sony Ericsson announced Nexus , their custom build and UI for Android that was made up of 2 components: Timescape and MediaScape. HTC Sense, MOTO BLUR, Sony Ericsson Nexus… that name had taken its place in Android history. And then Google erased it.
