Granted there have been many versions of the PADD throughout the ST series. But that one there looks thick, like over 1/2" thick.
edit: The PADD looks like you could beat someone to death with, whereas the Kindle would hurt and probably break before you killed someone. Kindle is not like the PADD or taken from its design.

How do you figure, i.e. point me to where George Lucas is particularly litigious.
Some of the funnier ones
Lucasfilm sues a laser making company over their real-life laser that looks an awful lot like Lucasfilm’s make-believe laser. Lucasfilm gave them a list of demands, the companies went back and forth for a while, and then Lucas rescinded the cease-and-desist when he decided his corporate penis was bigger, releasing a letter stating, “The media and public has come to realize that Lucasfilm would never endorse or license a highly dangerous product such as your Arctic Pro Laser.” Oh, okay, yeah.
WINNER: People Who Like Star Wars
This one is a strange one. Lucasfilm owns the copyright of the word Droid, which is silly, of course, because it’s just half of the word android. Even sillier, is that Motorola pays for the use of it. If you go to their website, on the bottom in the tiny no-one-reads-this font it says, “DROID is a trademark of Lucasfilm Ltd. and its related companies. Used under license.”
WINNER: George Lucas
Lucasfilm ushered in the beginning of the 21st century with a hilarious copyright squabble over a porno called Star Ballz. You can buy the VHS on Amazon.
It’s what appears to be an anime porn-parody of Star Wars. Lucasfilm sued the makers over fear that people would confuse the two movies. Lucas and company lost with the judge ruling, "The Star Wars films are so famous that it is extremely unlikely that consumers would believe that Starballz is associated with Star Wars or Lucasfilm.”

You do know that no one company owns the complete rights to Star Trek right?

Does this mean you'll running away from your 'Since when did George Lucas sue everybody' comment?
Yes, I think it does.
QAPLAAA!

Bitch please, I structured the initial question so that I could cover my ass. "point me to where George Lucas is particularly litigious"
Particularly litigious? What does it mean!? More litigious than other people in similar situations? More litigious than Star Trek brand owners? Who knows!

Fuck off.
