New e-readers using the new Adobe software will probably support the B&N DRM. Manufacturers like Sony will have to update their readers with the new Adobe software for them to support the B&N DRM.
Also the new version of Adobe Digital Editions that should be available this year will support the B&N DRM.
For all that, they still use a custom DRM that noone else uses, and is not (currently) supported on other eInk devices, unlike standard Adept DRM.
