Why would they not support encrypted PDF? This may limit access to library books - although many library books are both PDF and Mobipocket. But not all.
Well, no support for encrypted PDFs is going to make PDF support for it pretty much worthless.

One of the things that make the Iliad attractive was the idea that I could head over to O'Reilly and download PDF versions of manuals so that I could have them all in one convienent package. But I just looked at one of my O'Reilly PDFs and it says "This document has been encrypted..."

Checking all the other (legal) commercial PDFs that I have and they say the same thing.
