Dumb question, but where are they? Are those the buttons on the bottom? Presumably the "Daily Edition" one with an inch bigger screen and 3G access to Sony's store would have that too.

Anyway that's good to hear it has buttons. So weird that I can't tell from pictures!

Essentially, the ePub standard does not specify a standard DRM. As a result, there are actually several different competing DRM schemes.

1. Adobe Digital Editions Adept DRM. This DRM scheme is essentially supported by most eBook readers with the exception of the Kindle. Unfortunately, it does require registering your device.

2. Adobe Digital Editions with eReader DRM. This DRM was developed originally for the eReader ebook format (supported mostly by Fictionwise, which is now owned by B&N), and was ported into Adobe Digital Editions by B&N and Adobe. It is only supported by a handful of devices (Though any device with ADE could support it) including the Nook, the Pandigital Novel ereaders and I am pretty sure the Jetbook and Jetbook-Lite. Only B&N sell books with ereader DRM on them.

So, essentially, unless you are planning on buying all your books from B&N, you are probably going to have to register your device.
Okay, so basically there's "Adept" DRM and 'eReader' DRM? If I'm understanding this right, Adept works on Sony and Nook, eReader just on Nook?

And do those both use activation? Or does one or the other allow you to just use a password instead, without a connection to the respective store?
