"deception" is a poor choice of words. No one who knows what is going on in JTL beta is deceiving you, they are making it abundantly clear that they are bound by legal agreement to remain silent on anything they see or do in the beta test, until it is disclosed publicly by SOE itself. Everything a beta tester "knows" is subject to change, and if you were told how things stand now, and they varied significantly upon release, how would you feel then? Deceived? Really, we should be getting excited about JTL, but realize the beta agreement is best for everyone, since it lets the Devs and Testers make a better game with a clear field.

I know we shouldn't be speculating but I just had an idea.
What about one of the following?
1) A specific program is loaded into the data module of the droid and allows the droid to interface with the ship.
2) The droid has to have an item storage module to store the physical "datapad".
3) The droid has to have an item storage module to store the physical "datapad" and a data module to store more commands and configuration information for the ship.
I think #1 or #2 are more likely since they abide by the Keep It Simple Stupid rule.

sorry, I thought that was the implied point of the whole thread: whether or not data modules will be used and whether or not we should make them ahead of time.

Sorry, but that's a point you utterly failed to make. You never mentioned making or not making modules, and in each post after your initial one on the difference between Data Module and datapad, you were coming up with things he could have meant instead. If this was your point, it got lost in your examples. No offense implied or intended.
