Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1837:
--------------------------------------

[UIDevice model] only returns the basic info, like "iPhone" or "iPod Touch". Not sure if want to return the actual model like iPad2,5:

{code}
size_t size;
sysctlbyname("hw.machine", NULL, &size, NULL, 0);
char *machine = malloc(size);
sysctlbyname("hw.machine", machine, &size, NULL, 0);
NSString* _platform = [NSString stringWithCString:machine encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
free(machine);
{code}

> Device.name returns the custom device name as the user defines it
> in iTunes. It should return the model name, I.e. What device.platform
> returns now (related: CB-1836)
