Russian Coding Firm Back for More
You would think that the owners and programmers of Moscow software company ElcomSoft would want to stay as far away from electronic books as possible.
But despite the courthouse angst, ElcomSoft plans to continue to market exactly the sorts of products that led to their entanglement with the U.S. legal system.
"We have serious plans for the eBook market," Vladimir Katalov, managing director of ElcomSoft, said. "All perfectly legal, of course."
At least, Katalov hopes the new software his company intends to offer for Adobe and Microsoft eBooks is legal. He said no one at Adobe or Microsoft will discuss it with him.
"We tried to contact Microsoft ... describing the software we're going to release, and asking what do they think about that.... Will that violate any Microsoft patents, copyrights, licenses or whatever," Katalov said. "(Microsoft) responded that, 'Microsoft's legal department does not give advice to third parties.'"
Microsoft did not respond to requests for comment.
Much the same situation exists with Adobe, Katalov said.
