Well, this isn't the first time Philips has done this. Just over a year ago an identical stunt was pulled, with letters, refusal to supply products, etc. Didn't go over well with the public back then. Sure, there's a few online vendors out there that probably shouldn't be selling the Pronto, but that should be handled on a case-by-case basis. Not this broad sweep of all online vendors -- supposedly to "protect" the big boys.
