From some of what I've read about Vista, it's DRM restrictions and "security" features only tend to harm the innocent. Plus the amount of hassle I've seen for people to get software to run is crazy. Book Designer is a prime example. I really think Microsoft dropped the ball big time on Vista. Now to have some company come out with an expensive gadget like an eink device and make it rely on Vista for functionality is asking for trouble. Will DRM get in the way of this device and cause it to have problems? And it doesn't say what sort of content this thing will handle.
