"Acer Picasso with version 2.04" on Google Play Market

I just now discovered that my reviews on the Android Market (now called Google Play), identify my Acer Iconia TAB A500 as "Acer Picasso with version 2.04", on the web site (Windows Internet Explorer). It may be some kind of regional thing, or a bug. But if you see "Picasso", it's the Acer Iconia. "Picasso" is another name for this device, evidently, but I'd never heard of that til today. The Android App doesn't identify model names in the reviews, but has a filter that seems to properly filter reviews "From this type of tablet only". I thought I'd mention the web site thing, it since it could be confusing.

[EDIT: Select "Acer A500" to filter reviews on the web site, and it shows Apps for "Acer Picasso". That probably needs to be fixed. Google, please decide upon one model name or the other.]

I must say, I prefer the Acer artist nicknames (e.g. Picasso, Van Gogh for the A100) to the cutesy, sugary Android nicknames (Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich - alphabetized or not).

Speaking of which, ahclem, is your name an homage to the Firesign Theatre?
