all they need to do it have every other Ebook reader come onto the market with ADOBE epub drm support. and then they may switch to Epub.

but currently. they seem to be selling more than enough kindles and kindle books.
Amen! We see that in their mp3 downloads. I believe Amazon would prefer DRM free books.
