The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
According to Techdirt, which links to a modchip teams website. (i'm not linking directly because it might be breaking the rules)
Apparently "MrModChips" (really? ingenious name there) has had all 26 counts squashed and was awarded full costs. This is a pretty big milestone in that it is now clear legal precedent in the UK. Making the selling and purchase of modchips legal.

I've got a spare copy of Portal, if anyone wants it message me.
Well that's good, but is the USE legal, and is the prevention of use (Live bannings and Wii brickings) legal?
I think MS is fine because the terms of use for XBL have some catch-all Thou Shalt Not Modify Thy Console line. If Nintendo is bricking Wiis (damaging your legal property) just for having a chip installed, and not as a "side-result" (chip uses address 0xDEADBEEF, and a game also wants to use that address, OMGPWNIES) then that's shakier ground.
