Does Nintendo think anyone will actually say GAMECUBE NINTENDO every time you mention it, and call the GB the Game Boy Advance SP® hardware? Not Game Boy Advance SP, but Game Boy Advance SP® hardware!
Idiots...
And yes, there is a danger when it becomes a all-encompassing term like "Nintendo" in the NES days, or among clueless people "Playstation" for most all home consoles these days... but yeah, I haven't seen that in the portable market... none of the competition has been around for long enough. :) And I agree, there doesn't seem to be much danger of people confusing the PSP or N-Gage with the GBA...
Though, I will say that I think that it should be spelled as two words and not one. GameBoy is wrong.
