Another article summing up what we already know. I think Forbes seems to have a balanced stance on ecigs in general.

Sorry, but I have to give this a . I do give it points for not mentioning 2009 or antifreeze, but it leans a bit too heavily on quotes from Elliott Maisel and former ALAer Connor about how they don't mind if regulations stifle small independent manufacturers and internet vendors.

I found this to be interesting-

“One of the great misconceptions about e-cigs is it’s a fragmented industry,” Martin told me. “While there are 300 companies, the top three of them have 85% of the market.”

The article seemed pretty accurate. States will tax, the FDA will eventually enact age and marketing restrictions. They have already awarded grants for studies.
