This is the current behavior for a COOL-er, or Opus, or any other RMSDK device (except Sony because they are slightly different), and it will be the same for the Nook
OK... thanks -
That simple protocol handshake exchange has not yet been mentioned over on the B&N forum... I had thought that the Sony method of using it's own desktop software, was the only "handshake" method between the device and the AdobeID.
Sounds like the USB & Device ID hardware handshake for loading OS drivers.

SO - I'm guessing that the Kindle does not participate in the RMSDK handshake protocol to discover the PID (will have to read about that) ?

BTW - I don't see any real command structure menu in ADE ?
Does ADE appear differently when a Reader is physically attached ?

And lastly - what about the whole topic of Overdrive DRM library books vs the Nook ?

OH GREAT - I guess it's a real mess with several different DRM approaches....
No wonder we're confused as to what is actually supported on the Nook...
