In the spirit of branding, I think that any where the word "software" is used to describe branding one could substitute "hardware" or even the very general word "product". One might be concerned about diluting the conciseness of the branding effort into something that is barely comprehensible because it's scope has grown too large. Food for thought. Don't forget the fledgling www.openhardware.org who are trying to do this very thing for the community at large.
