I'm looking forward to B&N coming out with their own reader for ePub. I don't want everyone to have to use Adobe ePub rendering, and Adobe DRM servers and pay Adobe every time I buy a ebook.
If the only way they can do this is to come out with their own eReader DRM on ePub then that's what's going to happen. They won't be doing anything better or worse then Sony/Adobe. They'll just be doing it second. Maybe third if Amazon beats them to it. Hopefully they'll be honest about it and not pretend they're using open standards.
