    you would think from his eagerness to get to ben kenobi, whom he seemed to know, but leia may have just programmed r2 with the knowledge. i think r2 is an underestimated droid. people think hes just there to fix things, but he is coniving little piece of metal. so, i dont think his memory was erased, he just knows when to keep his bleep's to himself

    I agree with jedi_john_33. There's just something about R2 that gives me the impression that he always knows what's going on - and not in that "digital encyclopedia" way, but more on a personal level with the characters. Now 3po on the other hand, I think that this droid's memories from the PT era are long gone. He no longer knows who "the maker" is.

    According to GL, both the droids get a memory wipe at the end of Ep. III, IIRC.

    Aw, R2 doesn't need it. He knows how to keep his darn mouth shut, unlike other droids.

    Well, maybe it would be necessary, to keep an enemy from downloading stored information. In this case, the memory wipe wouldn't be to keep R2 from "talking" or otherwise revealing information, but to keep others from taking that information.

    Time will tell but I always thought only 3PO got the memory wipe but I have been wrong before.

    I finally found out what PPOR means, but what is IIRC?

    Lucas said right after AOTC came out that they'd get a memory wipe.
