Thank you,

The reason we can say "it's a Sony" is because Sony is a well-known manufacturer that makes lots of different things.
Google have started making phones and netbooks, so as they make more stuff you might start to hear "it's a Google" in the future, but at the moment it sounds a bit weird, just because they aren't as well-known as a manufacturer.
