Since eRreader was designed for PDAs, this works fine. But no dedicated ebook readers use the eReader format, possibly because the unlock mechanism doesn't go well with the firmware. It's basically "enter password to open book," with your CC# as the password.
I wish some of the eInk readers would attach the software for unencrypted eReader .pdb files, though. I have plenty of those that I'd like to avoid re-converting to new formats.

Let's say for argument's sake that everybody decides on one DRM implementation. In that case, hardware ereaders can be adapted with ease, as you only have to look at one implementation and it's the same for everybody.
Besides, one DRM implementation is so far away in the future, we'll already be on our third or fourth device by then!
