I hadn't realized that the Eurpean global positioning system was going to be a pay service. I imagine they will have to redesign the codes. Anyone know what the plan is for the Galileo satellites? Will it be illegal to use devices that just receive the American GPS signal?

This is just inaccurate, self-congratulaory hype from Cornell. All they "cracked" were the PRN codes being used on the development satellite. The PRN codes for the operational system will be publically available. The current satellite isn't useful for navigation.
