It would still be against Federal Law. And this is one law the feds prosecute as Poker Stars and that other bunch of thieves, Full Tilt Poker found out. I can't believe that any big name is going risk openning up a site in NJ. There are a lot of states where online poker is not against state law(almost all, in fact), but none of them have it.

Yeah, we'll see how this plays out in six months plus. One thing is that Jersey is desperate with AC not the only game in town anymore-Aq Racino, Philly,MD, etc.
