We know how it is: you’ve read our review of the Motorola DROID 2 and are suitably convinced by the new Verizon Android smartphone, but you’ve been waiting until the R2-D2 version arrived before putting down your money. Well, the wait is almost over: Verizon has confirmed that the DROID R2-D2 by Motorola will be available online and in select stores from September 30th.
The DROID 2 itself comes decorated to look like the Astromech Droid from Star Wars, and is packaged in a custom box resembling carbonite. There’s also a Star Wars media dock and wired stereo headset, together with some exclusive content:

* Bounty Hunt Visual ID: Find and capture images around the Star Wars universe to unlock hidden content
* Sound and Photo Gallery
* Live Wallpapers (Blast the Probe Droid; Luke Balancing Yoda; Navigating the Asteroid Field; Watch Bespin’s Cloud City)
* Trivia Challenge: Answer trivia questions about The Empire Strikes Back
* Widgets
For all this R2-D2 goodness you’ll need to pay $249 (after a $100 mail-in rebate) and sign up to a mandatory two-year voice and data plan. Otherwise it’s exactly the same phone as the DROID 2.
