I have a vague impression from articles read in the past that quantum entanglement could allow for a signal to be transferred over an arbitrarily large distance, instantaneously, because somehow a change at point A was 'magically' reflected at point B. I admit that this doesn't necessarily have anything to do with teleportation (I honestly don't understand their usage of the word). By the way, a quick Google search shows that I am not alone in my thinking, and that I am wrong. :-)
