Waiting? We've been through this before for almost the exact same issue when Yahoo! was sued by a French group for allowing the sale of Nazi memorabilia on their auction site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LICRA_v._Yahoo!

I'm not arguing whether or not it is theft, but the contents of the act do make it criminal which the parent argues otherwise. I was additionally simply pointing out that while he argues it is not Theft simply because it is not a criminal offense, the very bill that does make it a criminal offense contains Theft in the title

According to the NET act, copyright infringement is a criminal offense in some cases which is what I was replying to.

I take it you haven't read the No Electronic Theft Act? (Yes, Theft is right there in the title). IP violation can be a criminal offense in the US

VISA Europe is a membership association owned entirely by its membership (which are European Banks, including Swedish banks)

It's still alive on Xbox. It drives all of the new media applications

That's an issue between the customer and the provider which owns the server (ECN), not the FBI. If ECN wasn't notified by the FBI that would be a separate issue, but that hasn't been claimed.

Sure, if you want to just make shit up and blindly ignore the facts. Amazon has consistently lobbied for a federal internet sales tax.

Proving the value of anecdotal evidence, I have had the exact opposite experience. I take flights weekly, and I have not been on a flight without a few tablet users in a long time.

As a tablet owner myself, I find I rarely take the effort to drag it out of my bag when I can just reach for my phone.

Motorola's Webtop, which is being replaced here, was originally based on Ubuntu in the first place. While this iteration for the Atrix's successor may be more full-featured, the concept is identical. All of the features mentioned in the summary are already present.
