The decision was made on September 11 when Judge Claudia Wilken, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, awarded $3,750,200.00 in damages against corporate defendant Divineo, Inc., and Canadian resident Frederic Legault. Judge Wilken also awarded $5,791,400.00 in damages against corporate defendants Divineo U.K. and Divineo SARL, and French resident Max Louarn

I for one am glad, a few months ago I tried to order a g6 lite from divineo.com and waited over 2 months before eventually canceling my order and having to pay $15USD in stocking fees (as did quite a few other people). Guess their bad karma caught up with them.

Heres the comment about this article on xbox scene

However, what other sites fail to mention is that Divineo is not based or operating in the US, so this judgement doesn't really have much to do with their business.
Kinda weird to see a Japanese company sue a French/Canadian company using the US court ...
