Android VP keeps referencing 'Nutella,' suggesting name for Android N

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 16 Jun 2016 10:37 User comments (1)

Hiroshi Lockheimer, SVP of Android, is either an expert troll or the name of Android N is going to be Nutella.

The executive has been posting on Twitter, using some not-so-subtle hints as to the name of the upcoming mobile operating system.

Here are some of the least subtle references:

I had to look up how to spell nougat. But I do know how to spell Nutella. https://t.co/XM3i9idhea

The naming of the OS will likely be revealed soon as Google prepares final betas of Android N for release in the coming months.

This sounds like a copyright infringement to me. Can't believe Nutella would allow their name and logo on Android.

As for this........how ironic that Nutella was sued heinously for misrepresenting the healthiness of its product.
