A new development in the Zeta legality issue: BeOSFrance says to have written confirmation from Jean-Louis Gassee that to JLG's knowledge, YellowTAB did not have an agreement with Palmsource [French]. My French isn't exactly what it should be (I should've paid more attention during high school), but with the help of Adam and others we managed to translate the most important bit: "The impropriety and absence of an agreement between yellowTAB and PalmSource (at the time, still the owner of the BeOS IP) had been confirmed to me in writing by the person best-placed to talk about it in those circumstances: Jean-Louis Gassee."

Fraud means Betrug in German, Unterschlagung is embezzlement.
I'm not sure if mail fraud is their biggest problem since they actually soled Zeta on a German Shopping network and since YellowTAB would have knowingly involved the network they might take some legal action against YellowTAB to potentially protect themselves.
Anyway, IANAL and don’t really care, but personally I believe that if YellowTAB did this people should stop supporting them since supporting companies with dubious morals is definitely sending the wrong signal.
