iSnack 2.0

That's the name you will see when you're at your local supermarket, browsing for a jar of the new Vegemite.

Any thoughts on this i-prefix business?
Awesome name? Catchy name? Ridiculous name? Is it the key to expanding the Vegemite audience?

Will be interested to see how much of a fuss Apple makes about the name.
Also, worst name ever (or is that the plan to get publicity)

It was voted on by the Australian public wasn't it? I guess there's a moral to this story if so. iFail would've been much more appropriate at this rate.

No, the Australian public suggested names on the website from which board members chose a name.

bad name, suits a bad product :crazy2:

btw. the whole "i" thing is sorta going weird, and becoming boring. We have sort of come to accept anything with "i" as something techological, or something got to do with apple, now its being ripped off for a range of stuff.
