    Motorola Droid

    Seeing this commercial for the new Droid phone pop up all the time, I noticed the fine print...

    "Droid is a registered trademark of Lucasfilm, Ltd. and is licensed for use by Motorola" (or something similar to that effect)


    Interesting...Droid is just short-hand speak for Android...I was surprised that Lucas was able to trademark it....

      Doesn't the U.S. military use droids for spy and bombing missions?

      I wonder if they have to pay Lucas as well

              Well "Borg" is short for Cyborg -- but I bet Paramount owns the name.

                  Awful then if you happen to be Bjorn Borg. Would he have to change his name to "Bjorn Borg (TM)"

                      Do you think the BBC gets money for the word Robot? I just figure with a Doctor Who episode called that.
