Thanks Robert, that really helps.
I understood that B&N is already selling books in ePub format, but the books they're selling don't use Adept DRM. They are exclusively using their own proprietary DRM scheme. Only B&N's own nook book reader can render both Adept and B&N DRM, so only nook owners can buy from B&N, Sony, Kobo, BoB, etc. I also heard that Adobe's own DE software is unable to render the new DRM yet, so I'm not surprised by your answer. What is puzzling is that the B&N eBookstore doesn't clarify this issue for their customers.
I guess "fair warning" to potential B&N customers is in order.
