I don't know US law at all, but I heard first-sale doctrine mentioned many times in discussions about copyright on Mobileread, so I wonder - what does that mean in practice, and for ebooks? (assumming it doesn't get changed in further rehearing). I think any big law changes in US would make waves in the rest of the world atm.
As far as I could check, it wasn't mentioned in the News section of mobileread yet.
