2. "Each of the dedicated ebook readers supports exactly one DRMed ebook format." Is that really true? I thought some of the ebook readers that have been announced lately didn't. In any case that seems like a statement of a passing truth that's not really important; the point is your ebook reader only supports certain formats, and may or may not support DRM in those formats.
Good point on you one bullet. But I think that level of detail is beyond the level of this article

On your second point, I totally missed that error the first time I read it.
At the moment I can think of only two dedicated book reader that supports multiple DRM. The sony 505 and 700.
