No, it was a long time ago and I don't think it has anything to do with the publisher. It's a 'feature' of the newer versions of Mobi Reader where you don't need to register a PID with stores. I know there was a post from someone having a similar problem with a book from Diesel (fixed now because they added the ability to manually enter PIDs on their site).

BoB explains it like this...

When you buy a MobiPocket Reader (PX) eBook through BooksOnBoard, Mobipocket Reader 6 automatically recognizes most devices, avoiding the need to always keep track of PIDs. If, however, you use a device that is not recognized by MobiPocket Reader 6, such as an eBookMan or have a Mac, Linux system or other devices not supported in the latest Mobipocket version, you can still use them with Mobipocket Reader 6 but will need to manually configure the PIDs for your devices.
...apparently some stores aren't letting you manually enter a PID.
