It seems it's a legal problem, not a technical one ... and it's a shame in 2009 !
Yes, and they also have (or will have) a different version of the firmware which will support Mobipocket DRM. You can choose which firmware you'd like or, for that matter, carry two SD cards and reflash the firmware at your whim.

You may wish to read the information about the Opus on Bookeen's web site before jumping to conclusions .
