Verizon seems serious about the Motorola DROID, sends out R2D2 toys to the media

Verizon sent me an R2D2 Droid

As if the website and TV commercials weren’t enough indication that Verizon is going to make a big push with the Motorola DROID, I just received a remote control Star Wars R2D2 toy from the UPS guy. Verizon packaged the toy with some batteries, some bubble wrap, and a card that says “11.09 www.droiddoes.com” – and nothing else in the box.

Pretty funny.

You’ll forgive me if I don’t post a review of this particular DROID, but rest assured that I will certainly be playing with it later today… after I finish with the Samsung Moment that I picked up this morning.
