I want DRM support for the device, pocket pc's support DRM ebooks and mobipocket DRM so they can do it when it suits them.

I think the reluctance would be on Sony's part, not Mobipocket's. But Sony's recent embrace of EPUB does give hope. So Mobi might be the wrong party to petition (though I've added my voice).

As I remember, when the Astak machines were first being discussed, their man was very clear that Mobipocket would not grant a licence unless Mobi was to be the only DRM format supported on the device.

Amazon owns Mobipocket. How enthusiastic do you think they'll be about their subsidiary licensing the format to the Kindle's biggest competitor? I'd guess, not very... ______ Dennis |
