I'm pretty sure those answers are intended for the average customer, not developers. As far as I know it is the same environment as the DR1000S, and should be open source... etc. I'd be very surprised if this was a closed device and not open to 3rd party development, all of their other devices are open. You can add viewers/formats to the iLiad and DR1000S, so I expect this to be the same. It's not something the average customer is probably going to be doing though.

As far as the note taking, I'm assuming that page is talking about the initial capability, which they've said all along would not include annotations. Supposedly it is being added later. (insert standard comment about buying devices based on what they can do at the time of purchase, not based on future promises)
