Barnes and Noble is about to start publishing ePub books using a new (old?) DRM system previously used with eReader format. It uses your name and credit card number to unlock the DRM on a secure eBook on the assumption that no one will want to share those two pieces of information in order to give away a book. I think that's a reasonable assumption.
Question: Will Astak update their line so they can read both Adept and B&N DRMed ePub books?
I like having the choice of formats and sources that the Pocket Pro gives me but I especially like the eReader DRM scheme because it's the least intrusive. Hoping for an answer, even if it's in the form of "too soon to know."

I bought the EZ Reader specifically for this reason. There are still many places out on the net where it is stated that the Astak reads eReader books. This proved to be false, but Robertb has explained why this is, and to my satisfaction.
I have been stripping the DRM and reading with Allreader+, but I am hoping still that one day the Astak will be eReader compatible.
