With a Kindle, however, they will only be able to shop with Amazon or with shops that sell DRM-free epubs/etc (or epubs with the older DRM, I suppose, if there will be such a thing).

Please excuse/correct me if I've misread any of the technicalities. Just a thought-bubble!
Which new epub reader can use CS5 DRM?

...and by that time, it will have been cracked.

As pdurrant said, anyone who wants to remove the DRM will just not buy CS5-DRMed books. That is the whole point of wanting to remove the DRM, after all.
