Possible issue with the MacDev Droid...?

[Frizzle Fry]

So I'm sure everyone has seen the ads for Verizons new "Droid", a better-than-smart Motorola phone that operates on Google's Android platform... It's actually a great piece, I just got mine and I've enjoyed it immensly. Heck I've even posted on here with it.

One thing I noticed on the packaging was a small footer that stated that the word "Droid" is property of Lucasfilm Ltd, and is used with their licensing. Upon further inspection of the commercials, I noticed that there were more notes clarifying that Lucasfilm owns the rights to the word "Droid" and had licensed it out to Motorola/Verizon/Google.

My questions is this; has MacDev been in touch with Lucasfilm? Are they big enough for Lucasfilm to take notice? What happens if they do?

Well, the Clone isn't exaclty the same as the Droid, it's smaller and meaner

I had no idea the Droid was discontinued, though.

I'd rather have one of their Drones than any of their other markers.
Pretty sweet woods marker. Easier to maintain from what I have read and heard.

I put a hopper through, and liked it. I'd rather shoot an E-Tac, or even just a TacOne, but that's definately up there on my woodsball electro foodchain. It surprised me; I sorta fell in love with the Mtac and frankly I think the Drone was almost as good (I didn't like the balance so much).

But the M-Tac is $995.00 and the Drone is $499.00 (on Ebay right now).
If you have shot both and the only thing you found you didnt like about the Drone was balance
then the price difference would make it a no brainer to me.
And the air efficiency of the Drone compaired to an Etac or Tac One is major.
Although I couldnt afford any of them right now lol.
