I am making a program that comes up with stats/info on different services like starports, arms dealers, general store, droid workshops, speeder shops and cantinas so that the GM will get some inspiration for those otherwise boring shooping trips.
So, what other services does your player use from time to time?

Various Blaster Shops (We buy direct from BlasTech mostly, but also a few other places. We also have Black Market contacts for the more unique stuff)
Droid Shops (Droids 'R' Us give us a 10% discount on upgrades due to being frequent shoppers)
Docking Bays and Ports of all types (Always fun when they try to screw us on the bill)
Bounty Hunters Guild (Handy when you need to put a bounty on the heads of those that put a bounty on *YOU*!)
And, of course, the Star Wars version of 7-11, for Squishiees.

The planetary Google equivelent. Which is about as good as our internet, seeing as how the Empire basically shredded the fancy Holonet that was in place into small pieces. (Because the Internet is usually not good for oppressive regimes)

So there is blogging and all that, it's just at our level: IE really primitive to Star Wars people.

Restraunts, usually with the local flair. Rations on a ship get real old real fast, so my players usually head off to a restraunt right as they get of the ship. Fun to describe whatever wierd food they think they ordered (especially if on a custom planet), seeing if the PCs chance eating it or not.

Happy to help. If anything else comes to mind (like perhaps a paint shop for vehicular disguises) I'll let you know.

Can't believe I forgot these: Convience Stores and Coffee Shops!

They make excellent clandestine meeting places. No, seriously.

I'll take a double tall mochaccino latte with a shot of Irish Creme and extra whipped cream on top! Wink

And a pack of beef jerky for the road!
