EZ DOES IT: Pocket Protecol Droid to 'shake up' the market.

Straight out of the gate, EZTec is set to shake up the market with a device they describe as "game-changing".

Called 'EZPods', this new invention by the Jedi-backing business EZTec (the brainchild of the son of President E. Thorne) is being pushed as an alternative to protocol and translation droids.

Capable of 'real-time' translation of over 6 million languages, the pods can be affixed to the ears of the wearer.

However, Cybot Galactica, a large protocol droid provider, dismissed the competition.

"Protocol droids are so much more than just translators. You don't get the same service with a pair of earphones." the Corporation claimed.

Yet the new invention has gained traction, with early sales looking strong.

Providing a database of planets and customs, which the inventor says is 'open-sourced by its users', the EZPods can give real-time updates to the user as and when they request it.

Musicians and publishers have welcomed the news following confirmation that the EZPods come with music capabilities.

But analysts remain unconvinced.

"Much of the manufacturing market in this sector is dominated by 'legacy firms', with vast catalogues of droids on the market." one commented. "And, unfortunately for EZTec, they also control many of the facilities to build this product."

"If he wants to mass-produce, he will need more investment. For a business his size, thats a risk."

Fans of the product have disagreed, and early reports indicate that the designer's name recognition is making waves.

Here at the Herald we cannot say for sure - but we sure do like an up-and-comer.
