Icons for hardware that is contained within or connected to the
-computing device.
+computing device. Naming for extended devices in this group, is of the form
+&lt;primary function&gt;-&lt;manufacturer&gt;-&lt;model&gt;. This allows ease
+of fallback to the primary function device name, or ones more targetted for
+a specific series of models from a manufacturer. For example, a theme author
+may want to provide icons for different phones. The specific model icons could
+be named <quote>phone-samsung-t809</quote>, <quote>phone-motorola-rokr</quote>,
+and <quote>phone-motorola-pebl</quote>. However, the theme must provide a phone
+icon in the theme's style, so that devices not matching these models, will
+still have an appropriate icon. An exception to this rule is that the
+<quote>media</quote> icons do not need to include manufacturer names, as they
+are generic items, and may be available from many manufacturers. As a result,
+for media, the specific icons are to differentiate between different specific
+types of media. For exmaple, an artist may wish to provide icons for BluRay,
+DVD, HD-DVD, CD-ROM, and variations thereof. The specific media type icons
+should be named in the form, &lt;primary function&gt;-&lt;specific format&gt;.
+Some examples are <auote>media-optical</auote>, <quote>media-optical-bd</quote>
+and <quote>media-optical-dvd</quote>.
