Sigh, as a person who has had many Android devices since Eclair, I can tell you the hundreds of people who have asked me about my device of choice has never once asked me about the OS like you mention. But as long as it's not "girly", like you mentioned in another post, who cares right? Need that strong, masculine number to make you feel good about your phone!
Hi All
Yes I (Rodney) was one of guys in Australia who who dup up the trademark info a few hours ago and emailed tips@macrumors.com. I simply searched for TvOS via Google and via the USPTO and iP Australia with no issue getting results - USPTO - http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4810:zhuj12.2.1 (Attorney Michael Walsh) - IP Australia (Trademarks for the Commonwealth of Australia - http://www.ipaustralia.com.au/applicant/television-onstream-llc/trademarks/1693919/ (Uses Baker & McKenzie). In the US, the Trademark was registered by the Corporation Trust Centre in Delaware - GMaps - https://www.google.com.au/maps/plac...26,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xa7f65e48e5aca9db

Well they are not. Phone doesn't have any of the old desktop libraries. For example cannot compile apps with top menu to win phone. Core is the same sure but so is iOS and OS X - you can however create a mobile / tablet / metro style win app and have it run across the board.but that's the main problem and win10s greatest asset in one.
Essentially win and OS X are each single os's with multi versions extensions and limitations.
I can say the same about MacOS names. Mavericks? Really? El capitain. LOL.
Tiger? Lion? That's just embarrassing. Stick to a number. It's more professional.
Apple originally used names of animals for their OS. Now they have gone to nature. Maverick's was name after an area of water in California. El Capitan is one of the mountains not far from this region. There is a method behind the madness.
Actually I really liked the big cat naming scheme. It's just a shame they ran out of big cats.
As per Microsoft
"Following the launch of Windows 10 across PCs, tablets, smartphones and Xbox One, Windows Phone will no longer be known by its current name. Instead it will be called Windows 10 Mobile.
Windows 10 Mobile will include new versions of Office that are optimized for touchscreen devices and there will also be support for the Continuum for Phone feature. Windows 10 Mobile will support smartphones and tablets with displays under 8-inch."
Edit.
As i said earlier Windows 10 Mobile and Windows 10 Phone are the same thing. (I was talking about Mobile and Phone not full Win and Win Mobile...)
