I've checked this method against the method saving previews and sure enough the ones that support Blackberry show an Adobe DRM link for the preview while those that don't support Blackberry also don't have an Adobe DRM preview link.
Edit: Sorry wrong info! The new NZ site does show a blackberry for some books.

From what I can see the blackerry is shown for Adobe DRM epubs, but not for DRM-free epubs. So the absence of a blackberry doesn't mean you won't get an epub.

For example this book does not have a blackberry on the NZ site, but I have bought it and it is a DRM-free epub: http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebo...of-the-new-sun
