Depends :-/ See sony-k750i_mobile_phone.mpi :
Product=K750i mobile phone
Vendor=Sony Ericsson

and sony-ericsson_k810i.mpi:
Product=Sony Ericsson K810i
Vendor=Sony Ericsson

These names are not really helpful for multi-productid files, see for
example sony-e075_e076_e089.mpi which corresponds to 3 product IDs and
has :
Product=Sony Ericsson K850i, W910i, W580i
Vendor=Sony Ericsson

I'm a bit worried that having 3 places where to specify icons/names
for media players will confuse users and even some developers so maybe
we shouldn't have names/icons in the mpi files?
