Google, having learned their lesson from the Android name kerfuffle, have trademarked the name ‘Nexus One’. Nexus One is the rumored device that Google is set to launch in 2010 and this trademark is concrete proof of the name Google plan on using. It was reported that Phillip K. Dick, owner of the rights to the movie Blade Runner, was disappointed that Google did not seek his permission to use the Nexus One name. I am sure that comment caused a few snorts. In any case, Google is hell bent on dominating the mobile industry and they certainly have the resources to do it. I think it is pretty much a safe bet to predict that the Android OS will become the most popular operating system in the world by 2011 and if all goes according to plan, the Nexus One will become the most popular phone by the same year. Now let’s see Apple prosper when it finally has some real competition.
