R2D2 here,
The meteoric rise of the Droids has very little to do with Jobs & Apple’s arrogance. Although I thank them for it because it only allows my Droids to gain traction even faster. I predicted that we would be the downfall of Palm. See, now that has happened. Droids will be everywhere in your world in less than three of your earth years. I have Hans scheduled to make another drop shipment in two of your earth days then jump back to hyperspace to fill an order on Tatooine.
The Force is with us.
