That's what I mean. If Lucas has trademarked "droid", that can't possibly apply for a piece of software. Motorola might have a problem, though.



Motorola did in fact pay Lucas to use the word. I don't think that necessarily means Lucas had a valid case against them, though; I think companies sometimes seek more clearance than they need in order to mitigate risk.
