No, Adobe added this to their reader SDK (though it's fairly recent, I think). Any reader that uses Adobe DRM can use the B&N DRM as well. It's up to the manufacturer whether they want to include it or not. For readers produced before Adobe added B&N, the manufacturers could update the SDK and their firmware.

Yep. Most of the readers that will read multiple DRM systems are produced independant of ebook stores, or are tablet apps.
