Anyone holding out for the R2-D2 edition? I was looking at the R2-D2 edition, because in a previous Engadget Story they had a mock up that looked completely black. Now I'm thinking that was just a general Droid2 shot in low lighting that they photoshopped a picture of the lovable astrodroid on the screen of.
The press release said the R2-D2 edition says "will feature exclusive Star Wars content and external hardware designed to look like the trusty Droid from the film saga." That seems to indicate it will be painted in even brighter blues and whites.
So now I'm thinking I'll just get the Droid2 on launch and get an ultra-thin blue case. As much as I'm a Star Wars geek, I have a hard time seeing pulling the phone out in professional contexts with it painted up to look like a Star Wars character.
