I believe Sony and Kobo have decided not to add the BN DRM to their devices.
I think that BN realized that they could safely open up their device to all EPub DRMs and that they would be fine because most people would buy books from BN. For all of our chatter I have a feeling that most people buy their books from the store associated with that e-reader because most people do not take the time to shop outside of their eco system.
I do not believe that Kobo was out when the Nook was announced, I think it followed quickly, so all BN was doing was opening its e-reader to Sony which has the least successful bookstore.
