Austrian Physicists 'Teleport' Light Over 600m

openSoar writes "The BBC is reporting that: 'Physicists have carried out successful teleportation with particles of light over a distance of 600m across the River Danube in Austria. When physicists say 'teleportation', they are describing the transfer of key properties from one particle to another without a physical link.'"

Haven't we learned anything from Half-Life or Doom? Teleportaion can only lead to some race trying to enslave humans. Ya, science is soooooo great.

Indeed, this isn't so much teleportation as rsync.
