We're not quite sure what to make of this one, but we'll share it with you nonetheless.

Today, i-mate introduced two 3G new Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. The i-mate JASJAM, the rebranded HTC TyTN (aka "Hermes") and the i-mate SP JAS, the rebranded HTC MTeoR (aka "Breeze").

Not only do we have no clue how to pronounce these non-aka names, we have no idea how to spell them when we're not looking at them as we're typing.

We're not even going to analyze 'em. Just know this

. If you have words without vowels and are randomly hitting the shift button while you type (as would happen with any good infinite number of monkeys) chances are good to great that you'll end up with a truly horrendous name.

Let's hear it for LFJksfKmpS!
