Several of these wallpapers are quite nice as well: both the LG Optimus and the Optimus 2X have a few gems. But the default LG Revolution wallpapers are probably the best ones yet from [...]

I’ve actually been looking forward to these: the static Star Wars wallpapers from the upcoming Motorola Droid 2 R2-D2 Edition.
