Most average folks won't even care about the DRm as long as they can plug and play. Plug the reader intot he computer, purchase the book, send the book to the reader and read. That's what they care about. It's us geeks here that care. And it's the geeks that might not care about the latest books on their readers. As an example, if I gave my mother a reader that could not read the books she likes then it would be useless or I would have to do all the conversions for her. So you see, a lot of people will want it to work seamlessly. DRM won't be be an issue to them unless they find out they cannot use their device to read books they want.
So what I am saying, is the V3 is going to tank.
