Thats good. With Orlys case about to be dismissed, I was afraid it would get boring.
Don't get your hopes up. The opinion is probably going to be issued on October 26 - and the Court has already indicated its view on the matter in its two prior rulings denying Berg's request for stays. In two prior rulings, the 3rd Circuit denied Berg's request, stating (from second order:
"As ably expressed by the District Court, it appears that Appellant lacks standing to challenge the election of Barack H. Obama to the Presidency of the United States. Even if Appellant possessed standing to raise the issue of President-Elect Obamas constitutional eligibility to be President, no justiciable controversy is presented, as Appellant seeks adjudication of a political question. Accordingly, Appellant has not shown a likelihood of success with respect to his appeal." So we already have a pretty good idea of the 3rd Circuit's view of the case.

The Courts are trying to pretend it’s a Political Question, so they can use lack of standing to get rid, but this is really a Constitutional question, so no standing is required. The Courts have a duty to uphold the Constitution.
