Wondering when you might get a chance to check out that limited edition Star Wars version of the Motorola Droid 2? If you happen to be making your way to Orlando for Star Wars Celebration V August 12th through 15th you can check it out in person, according to this screen grab from Verizon.

There is still no known release date for the R2-D2 variant, though the standard Droid 2 will launch on August 12th. While the nature of what content will be included with the R2-D2 version was revealed on Verizon’s promo site, exact details are not available, so that makes Celebration V a perfect opportunity to score some early hands-on time with the handset. The geek in me really wishes I could check it out myself.

Are any readers planning on attending the convention? If so let us know what you think of the Empire Strikes Back Droid 2!

  1. It’s just going to have a decal of R2-D2 on the back and some Star Wars bloatware. Yawn.

  2. They are really making a big deal of this star wars stuff? I really can’t wait to see the next TV ads

  3. Fuck the droid 2 no one wants the eFuse.

  4. It would be sweet if the phone was white/blue/black like R2D2

  5. Still waiting for FROYO on my Incredible, but thanks for the star wars crap Verizon. wtf!

  6. I live in Orlando so I looked into going cause i thought it may be cool, but not at $128 for a 4 day pass and $48 to $52 for one day.

  7. I will be going Friday. I will try and take pics of the phone (if I can that is). I will definitely be seeing it though.

  8. Droid owes it’s name to Lucas, and the Force is weak in you haters.

  9. Seriously, why the hate ?

    Who cares if they choose to advertise with the help of Star Wars. It will help them sell more phones.

  10. yeah! I want to see more star wars ads and fewer “chick flick” facetime ads.
