Yes Sony finally went to ePub, but ADE is hardly the standard DRM.

On this side of the Atlantic, it definitively is.

Exactly.
That was the reason I chose bookeen back there. That and the fact the sony wasn't available then.
Now i can buy a book on the sony store, and read it with my opus. Without de-drm.
Buying book from amazon ? hacking to get the PID, de-drm, convert, fix the badly converted ePub.
Kindle, well, locks to kindle apps. You blame sony because they have locked stuff. Amazon is still locking stuff. Apple too. If the locking in from sony bugs you, i'm surprised the one from apple or amazon don't.

The Play Station 1 blew away Nintendo, and within 2 years Sony took the gaming industry from them. But they spent their time trying to come up with hard goods "Sony only" media, when the shift was beginning to digital. They stopped being innovative.

The wii, and the Nds uses proprietary plugs. Worse, ds lite and dsi don't have the same connectors. Ps3 uses standard usb and hdmi plugs. Nah, sony is way more open than Nintendo there.
