After spending an hour over on Adobe's DE support forums reading all kinds of hate mail, I'm not sure I want to try to install Digital Editions on my computer! And while the hype is "take your digital books wherever you go", the fine print is that "wherever" can only be six devices.
I guess I don't understand how epub is any different from any other site- or hardware-specific DRM scheme. If I am required to "authorize" with Adobe (which gives them permission to log your activities online and maintain all kinds of fun information about you on their databases), why is epub being hailed as "the end of e-babel"?
If we must live with DRM (and it certainly seems that we must, if we want to read most of the currently published mainstream books), I still think eReader is the only one that truly allows you to "take your books wherever you go".
So, do the listed firmware improvements (such as [nonDRM'd] PDF reflow) work if you DON'T install Digital Editions to your computer?
