  1. Didn't the US Supreme Court just issue an opinion upholding the right to "jailbreak" devices in order to run software that is legal in every other respect?

  2. okay, it wasn't the supreme court, but still, this seems to invalidate sony's argument:

    "Now the Library of Congress, which operates the Copyright Office, has taken away Apple's copyright argument. Jailbreaking is "fair use," it decided, and therefore not a copyright violation. This ruling on jailbreaking was one of several good decisions issued by the Copyright Office this week."
