The dismissive way that he labels the third groups as Sony/Others is rather silly when the correct description would actually be all hardware, booksellers and libraries outside of north america than aren't amazon or apple, but I guess that wouldn't diminish that group quite enough for his argument.
The question about what happened to the firmware updates for sony to support the b&n drm is a good one, but given their general apathy and the fact that other companies support this feature it does seem quite likely that this is down to sony not doing anything yet rather than adobe.
The point about Kindle seeming to be the winner is hard to argue with, but the rest of the rant is pretty flawed, not to mention the obvious point that the current winner is kindle drm that amazon could just as easily wrap around epub if they decided that was their better option at some point and with their setup they wouldn't need to offer a choice of file format they would simply send the correct one to whatever kindle-compatible device their customer had.
