highwaist: Those are not acronyms. Just names that the creators came up with. However, I do know that Bluetooth was based on a Danish king who liked to eat blueberries. The others, well the founders usually have an origin of some sort. xymmie01: Third Generation. As in 3rd Generation of telecommunications technology. 9jatatafo: You're right. None of those are acronyms. Even Wi-Fi doesn't mean wireless fidelity, as said. It actually has no meaning. It was just chosen for its catchiness and it's similarity to Hi-fi (which means high fidelity). It was coined by Interbrand. They were simply looking for a nice sounding name. ademoladeji: 4th Generation (of mobile telecom technology). 1 Like |
