Actually, Adept DRM doesn;t need to be reencoded for a new device as long as the new device uses the same info that was encoded into the file.
So if I have ADE on my computer, download a DRMed ePub and then after I buy a 650 and authorize it to the same account, then that ePub will work with the 650 no problem. No need to redownload the ePub.
The solution to all this DRM mess is just to strip off the DRM and enjoy.
