Okay, I understand what they're talking about now. They're not talking about teleportation, which they've done many times at much more impressive distances, they're talking about the teleportation of information, which means you could have near-instantaneous communications between us on Earth and someone anywhere in the universe.
One end could be in downtown New York and the other end could be in the Andromeda Galaxy; so long as you transported the entangled particles.

At this point we have abundant experimental evidence that these things don't help most people. --- [1] Not that there aren't plenty of physicists who need help, too.
