Actually, nothing is being "transported" anywhere. The information has been transmitted but nothing 'moved' from one location to another. That is the fundamental misconception that is causing all these issues with causality and so on to arise but I am still figuring out how to explain it properly. =)

You're correct. Misuse of terms. Five yard penalty (to me).

I don't quite understand how any information has been transmitted. In order to determine a quantum state, it has to be measured - and the act of measuring causes the quantum state to collapse. So the "sender" at point A causes a quantum state change, the "receiver" at point B has to make a measurement to determine the quantum state, and B could do that prematurely, causing the quantum state at A to resolve... Quantum entanglement works both ways.
