And even though people who own an e-ink kindle can dedrm for now, there is no guarantee how long that ability lasts too. I mean, technically they could force a firmware update even for really old models so if you connect to wifi to download books it updates first and then the ability could be gone.
If the new eBook is not an Amazon exclusive, then it's not bad news as you'll be able to buy it in ePub and remove the DRM.
