Every time there's another use for artoo, I do this same mournful post, bewailing the ignominy of his latest dressing-down. And here's another. Oh noes, poor artoo, now he's a VOIP phone with webcam! Rly.
Star Wars R2-D2 Web Cam and VOIP Phone Description:
- The supreme Star Wars robot!
- Comes with a lightsaber-styled, Skype-compatible phone.
- Access it from anywhere in the world!
- Get yourself an R2-D2 Web Cam!
Sob.











Rather than bemoan the artoo abuse, recognize that these things are simply palely shaded manifestations of the primary avatar, here to bring us goodness and Teh Force.

I love when they make artoo into something useful! I think the only thing better than Star Wars stuff is useful Star Wars stuff.
That being said, Lucas has pimped out every aspect of his work (if I see another Indiana Jones Burger King/Dr. Pepper/Special Edition commercial, I think I'll cry) so doing this actually makes sense.
