IIRC in Episode 4 (the first one), he referred it to R2, when =20
purchasing it.  Something to the effect of "...how about that R2 unit =20
over there?..."

FWIW, I had always heard that it was called R2D2 for "Reel 2, Dialogue 2".

Like I am now.  Shouldn't this be 42,608,415? I just got up, so let me =20
have my "12,648,430", and I'll get back to it.
