You're not seriously suggesting that Bookeen should stop selling the CyBook because one of their suppliers has a contractual dispute with a third party, are you? That dispute is not of Bookeen's making, and not under their control.
It seems to me that it's rather unreasonable to hold someone responsible for something that they have no control over; if Bookeen are using the hardware and its associated o/s under the terms of a legally arranged contract, it's not Bookeen's "fault" if their supplier hasn't done everything that THEY should have done, is it? For them to "lose out" in a situation in which they are themselves completely blameless is rather an unreasonable thing to suggest, IMHO.
Are you going to stop using your CyBook as a result of this?
