But who is the administrator of this reader? I bet out of the box, you will not find any information about this remote wipe feature and will have no access to it. Are they talking about a special business version of this reader or the one and only version of it? I would not be surprised if the 'administrators' are the book vendors. Certainly microsoft has not provided means for me to remotely wipe my own windows mobile phone if I lose it.
