R2-D2 Droid Now Available For Those Who Know Han Shot First
Yes, it's true my geeky, Star Wars-loving, wookie-imitating, fan of cinnamon-bun hairstyle compadres: the long awaited R2-D2 model of the Droid is now available on Verizon.
And they've even made a relatively cheesy Star Wars-style, text-disappearing-into-space movie intro for it that doesn't come close to living up to the promise of the question they posted on the homepage: "Does your phone shut down ALL the garbage mashers on the detention level?"
Specs are the same as on a standard Droid 2, which means you'll be able to tell all the ladies that your phone's got a 1GHz processor, 5 MP camera, lots of memory, and runs Android 2.2.
You still won't get laid, but at least you'll go home to your Princess Leia poster with nice pics of the girls that snubbed you. Plus, when you get home, you can put your phone in the fancy, custom docking station (that looks suspiciously like it was made from recycled Imperial storm trooper armor) and go beddy bye next to ol' R2.
Quantities are limited, and word on the street is that the Tusken Raiders (that'd be Sand People to those of you that have a life) are snapping them up like Jabba the Hutt at an all-night Klatooine paddy frog BBQ, so you may want to get on it if you want one.
Price is $249 with a new two year contract, and a hearty "damn, I have to trade in my land speeder for one" $599 full-retail.
And yeah, of course Han shot first; he had huge balls, not chicken-shit, politically correct, movie-destroying, effect-adding, scene-ruining Hollywood balls.
