Start Wars fans can now rejoice since Motorola has just announced the limited edition Droid R2-D2 Andrid smartphone, that takes a pretty much ordinary Droid 2 handset and turns it into a device fitting any Star Wars geek wet dreams.

Once in a while a gadget comes along that seems to be so useful that you can't help it but ask yourself why hasn't someone thought of that sooner, the Sony Ericsson LiveView, that updates you on your Android phone status without having to unlock your handset for every minute task, being such a device.

Designed to work with Android 2.x phones this tiny gadget, that can be attached in a watch strap, on a keychain or clipped to a laptop, comes with a 1.3-inch OLED screen that can be used to read messages, control music playback, receive social networking updates and can even help you to find your phone.
