So, this doesn't track with the other message you sent about books breaking as soon as you deregister.
Either the ebooks are encrypted to the specific device and they would work whether it was registered or not... or the ebook are encrypted to the account of which some type of key is embedded in the reader when it is registered and unregistering it removes that key from it.
Have you registered a second device to your account, coppied ebooks to it that you already had downloaded and they didn't work? If so, I guess it is possible that the same file is encrypted for multiple keys like mobipocket does it, but they why would they stop working as soon as you deregistered the device.
