What is the point of this!!!
I don't get what's so funny?

It looks like a pretty good product. As I understand it it'll allow me to listen to Digital Radio from my SKY box 30m away in the garden, which is pretty useful for (next) summer and has a rechargable battery good for 8hrs.

So why do you think it's pointless?

I think all the good product names have been taken I think which is why we have to put up with the above dross.
 
I think lots of products have bad names, even Apple's. However, if it's a good product, I think that over time, people stop thinking about how bad the name is, and in fact, probably never think about what the name actually means at all.

eg: more than half the cars on the road have crap names. ;)
