That's interesting.
Any clue just WHAT they were selling and WHY the FCC was investigating it? |

Quote: at least 50 models of unauthorized digital audio devices.
Holy Moleeeee -- that sounds like everything they market here in the U.S.
They've been quite successful here in the 'states. I wonder how this will affect the company?
A million dollars.... now they'll have to pay that, and STILL do all the testing required to meet government specs. |

Here is the complete suit document filed by the FCC. On the last pages are the affected models.
It makes for interesting reading...

| It's leet-speak for "owned", and "owned" is and explicative for "you got owned" or similar expression, much like when Nelson goes "Ha ha" on The Simpsons. Go to Google and click on the "images" link, then do a search for "owned" (or pwned, and many other spelling variations) and you'll get all kinds of pictures that are usually funny at the expense of someone elses missfortune. And for information on just what in the world is "leet-speak", go here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet |
