Bookeen has told us that the have to distribute source code but they have not done it so they have admitted that they are guilty. It is also trivially true that they are guilty. Recently i checked the laws in Sweden and it is illegal for me to sell my Cybook to somebody else which is a very bad thing. Other people selling the Cybook here might want to know that it might be illegal. And the forum should not be used for illegal stuff... I am also suprised that this forum supports Bookeens selling things which is a copyright infringement.
