On a practical level, what do you expect Bookeen to do about it? Stopping selling the Gen3 and go bust?

They signed an NDA and still they started to sell the unit. They should not have signed the NDA since it is not allowed to have NDA for the Linux source. They should not have built a unit they cannot sell without copyright infringement. They knew about this well in advance so this was not something new for Bookeen.
What should a pirate do? Should he really stop distributing copyrighted material?
