Yea, I knew you weren't think in that direction but it triggered a thought in me. But the talk was about Microsoft reader as well as lit and I don't see Microsoft porting it to another OS. I didn't realize the original Cybook was WinCE thanks for that data.

I doubt that any LIT reader could support Microsoft DRM without their permission but I could be wrong. Supporting non-DRM lit is likely to be ok I would think but Microsoft has been aggressive in their products and suing people so I would think it best to get their approval on a commercial product. They might not care but I can't speak for them.
