Gotta love the German creativity in naming. It's called "C Net" because that came after "B Net", which came after "A Net". While "A" apparently stood for "Autotelefon" (car phone).

And when D-Net came, T-Mobile called their service D1, and Vodafone called theirs... D2.

This naming scheme made things very obvious. While it wasn't the most creative, it was objectively the best ;-)

They should have named it C++.Net
