To my post on The EPR paradox (Sorry folks I made a
typo mistake - it was Podolshi not Polsudski - I was
mixing the Scientist with a Pre-WWII Polish
politician)

Yes, it is entanglement. One thing which is
surprising in entanglement is that all particles
created at the time of the Big Bang *were* entangled.
Thus the universe as a whole is one single FTL
communication system.

I was aware that the there were plans for using
entanglement for simple calculations I did not know
that they had proceeded.
Regarding the teleportation approach, have a look at
D. Boschi, S. Branca, F. De Martini, L. Hardy and S.
Popescu: "Experimental Realization of Teleporting an
Unknown Pure Quantum State via Dual Classical and
Einstein-Podolski-Rosen Channels",
submitted to Physical Review Letters, Los Alamos
preprint archive quant-ph/9710013.
