Oh, I'm sorry, they haven't filed the suit just yet....
Did anybody see the word "minidroid" on the back of the new Archos 28? Unless they too are licensing 'droid' from George Lucas, I would bet a lot of money that Verizon will sue Archos as soon as they try and sell it on American soil.
Until now I had wondered why Verizon always gives the little legalese about 'with permission from Lucasfilm' but now I realize that it was their strategy all along to own 'droid' whenever it pertained to Android devices. It's just sad to see it such a lopsided legal battle coming, I really hope that the new Archos product doesn't ship with that unfortunate name.
