If it passes, it means that the KO2 will have to either be scrapped or redesigned as Amazon would not be fitting the bill. Also, Microsoft will have to redisign the Surface Pro and the Surfacebook. Also, any other make of battery powered electronics may have to redesign to meet the new law.

Even if it's not going to be easily user replaceable, third party repair shops will be able to do it and if the companies make the batteries difficult to get, that may violate the law.
