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.

Well, technically, stripping DRM might be illegal in your jurisdiction. Not to mention, some people will be intimidated by the process.
As for the problem with the 650... that is all well and good assuming that ADE will let you add the new device to the account. In theory at least, if you download and archive a copy of the B&N software for your computer, you can at least use that to read your book on any computer long after B&N gets out of the ebooks game (assuming they do). If Adobe gets out of the game, you won't necessarily be able to authorize new devices.
