That's Sony's decision, just like it is Amazon's decision not to support any type of epub.

You can, however, go ahead and read your ebook on the Pandigital Novel just fine. And as more companies use the current Adobe DRM SDK, more readers will be able to read them. Companies will have to actively go out of their way to not support the format.
I call that locked ... again, it's not about the format, is the DRM implementation.
