I think we can just ignore and inform. (Sounds like a cliché from the 
military or something) I don't think Dave has the interest nor money to 
start a US court circus but I agree that it's really bad. If they had 
come up with a really good idea I don't think Dave would've cared but 
we're talking chinese digital drap here. A microprocessor and a few 
kilos of plastic...
