No, you're not. The dutch article says remarkably little, and I assumed that they had additional info from another source. Given the coincident timing with Amazon Kindle's announcement that they wouldn't be allowing 'PD submissions' anymore, it might just as well be something else. Still, I doubt it will encourage publishers to go to mobipocket.com and email them when all they see is that they can no longer register with them, only with the Kindle store (meaning they will only be selling to kindle users).
