I think, of the first ten posts on this topic, three (6, 9, 10) bashed Fox in one way or another. Fox did not originate the original story and there was no political flavor to the story at all.
The stated intent of the guidelines is to maintain a "a friendly and inclusive forum."
We know who doesn't like Fox or MSDNC or CNN or the BBC. There's no need to take a poll every time someone links to a story on one of their news sites.
I think the copyright/fair use issue is completely germane to e-readers. I know that gets political and people *should* try to keep the tone polite, but DRM, portability, licensing, and access to content are central to the selection and use of an e-reader.
To OP, thanks for letting us know that new tech was coming. Some of us will benefit from a delayed decision either by having more choice or enjoying lower prices on old tech.
