Decompiling is not a problem where I live. No one ever got accused for decompiling. That's why I said so. Mobipocket Inc. can't sue me in my nation. Unless I went to Poland. However, if mobi Inc. does sue me in Poland, there might be a controversy called " forum shopping" in conflict of laws. Besides, I don't see any convincing evidence.

Added:
Would you please cite the relevant code of Poland law? I hardly can believe that pure decompiling is illegal.

Maybe I overinterpreted the copyright law. Decompiling is copying a program in a way and copying isn't allowed even for personal use (unless license permits it or creating a backup copy is essential to use a program.) It's quite possible that I'm wrong.
