PlayStation 3 to not be called PlayStation 3

NVIDIA's on board now so it's probably gonna be along the lines of PlaystationFX 3 GTS 8900 100mph.
Call me a closed minded moron but anyone thinking the next Playstation will be called anything but Playstation3 is stupid. And i'm always right. And i'm pretty.
You do know that you have no rights over CineStation and CellStation, in case they become the Playstation3 name, as many (TM)'s you put after them... 
You won't be able to take Sony to court and get them to give you a share of their profits, unfortunately.
That is, unless u're already copyrighted those names

I think this will go the same way as PSOne's successor not being called PlayStation 2.
You do not waste a brand name you worked so hard at building it knowing how important are trusted brand names such as PlayStation.

Yep, sometimes originality can go f**k itself, when profitable continuity is involved.

I remember reading an interview with Kutaragi over his conception of PlayStation. He said something like "you go to work and use a workstation. When you come home you want to play, so you'd want a playstation." That's where the name came from.
It would be ridiculous to lose that trademark - it's surely got to be one of the most powerful in the entertainments/electronics sector. But if they do change the name, maybe it'd be along these lines to have a different sort of Station? an EntertainmentStation or something equally lacking?

The Playstation name aint going nowhere. Taking the name away would be suicide. And the numbers after it define which generation the hardware you buy belongs to. Taking the number off would be very incoherent.
