Philip K. Dick Estate Sues Google : Slice of SciFi.

Would it have killed Google to at least ask to use the name Nexus One?

Don’t try to pretend your using the name because of it’s original meaning – meeting place. Why add the One to the end of it then?

Personally I think the name Nexus One is an awesome name – but ONLY because of the attachment to Blade Runner / I Dream Of Electric Sheep.  If that movie / book didn’t exist – then Nexus One would be a pretty fricken lame name for a phone to be honest.

Asshats.
