I like nPVR, but am not thrilled with NextPVR. Given that, G3PVR is what I picked. My bet is on the forum many will shorten it to G3. If G3PVR is chosen, I would keep the GBPVR "brand" with G3 as the latest product. Therefore I would consider keeping the GBPVR forum and homepage.

For the couple of users that have mentioned keeping the GBPVR branding...
There is long standing ownership issues around the GBPVR code base and possibly the name, and I'm trying to move away from those problem. Its best to move away from "GBPVR" so it doesnt come back to bite us later. As mentioned in the first 1.5 release announcement, this was a key reason for rewriting the entire application.
I will of course keep gbpvr.com pointing to the same location though when the even new domain name comes live.
- It's easy and unambigous to pronounce - how do you say G3PVR?
- What when G3PVR becomes G4PVR?
I'm sure whatever is chosen, we'll adopt and adapt...

I did prefer G3PVR, but I have warmed to NextPVR over the last couple of months to the point where I prefer it. If getting away from the GBPVR name is important, I think G3PVR is too close.
I went for G3PVR not that I particularly like it but primarily because sub has the domain name for it & even if it is shortened to G3 for common use a google search is always going to find it (at the top of the list?) where as nextpvr isn't going to be at the top of the list when searching for the shortened npvr name as there is also an npvr domain name that sub doesn't have.
