It really depends on the publisher/distributor. Most don't lock it to a device, only to a user. Some lock it to a single device (and no transfer to handhelds at all) and some lock it to a single PC and any number of handhelds (up to a usual limit on the number of activations). ADE Item Info dialog will tell what it is.
We'll see which way it evolves. Some distributors want to be able to lock it to a single handheld (and no PC) and we may implement it at some point. But maybe everyone will just complain about this whole device locking thing and they decide to drop it and I can work on nicer text layout instead of this DRM stuff - who knows?
