I do think these names seem straight forward, but there could be issues when
you start to integrate clients on devices. An example would be if there
isn't a way to have an integrated App manager on the device to pull from
multiple repositories. Then the client might have 2 or 3 different app
installers and it isn't clear to the end users what the difference is.

What ever name is eventually decided on should follow the process all the
way from developer to end user and stay consistent throughout. Having it
change for either makes it confusing and doesn't promote end users from
becoming testers and eventually developers.

With that in mind, I wonder if using something like "Extras" is a better
approach. Extras can encompass both "Apps" and "Surrounds" and wouldn't
potentially be confusing with other App installers like AppUp or OVI? Extras
can also follow the entire process along.

Thanks,
Mike
