It's neither the career move nor the concept of the e-wallet that is in dispute... refer to the Mark Papermaster hiring fiasco that involved Apple and IBM a few years ago. The complaint is about a high-level executive acting against the company's interests while being employed in that capacity by stealing company information. I'm not a lawyer but I seem to recall quite a few similar cases e.g. someone from Coca-Cola who jumped shipped to Pepsico (or was it the other way around) and got charged with violating trade secrets laws.
Edit: OK I got the details of the Coca-Cola/Pepsico case wrong. Apparently some Coca-Cola employees tried to profit from selling trade secrets to Pepsico.
