I've been doing a lot of reading up on these things recently (I'm the PS3 owner mentioned in the story, and quite embarassed to be front page news on Slashdot when all I actually did was send a mail to Amazon asking them to clarify where they stood on this whole affair) - the relevant EU directive (1999/44/EC) states that where the retailer pays out but the lack of conformity was caused by the producer (or someone else further up the supply chain) the retailer has the right to go after the person responsible for the lack of conformity to get their money back - in this case, Sony. I'm hoping Amazon will end up doing this, because they're not the ones to blame for this.

Why for that matter won't WP7 apps run on WP8?
They will. What made you believe otherwise?
Win7 apps won't run on Windows RT (Windows 8 for ARM CPUs). But yeah they run just fine on Win8 with x86/x64 CPUs.
Then I'm happy that my name is not too common...

Excellent book by the way. :)
