for EPub DRM purchases from sites other then B&N, I believe the Nook works like:
1) you authorize the Nook/Astak device once using ADE
2) you download your purchase using ADE
3) you transfer the epub to the device
I just assumed that was how the Nook and Astak devices worked?

Dear John F:
I am not supposed to talk down any other device here so I need curtail my comments. The Nook $149 uses Wi-Fi, meaning it has an elementary browser only, meaning it can go to one pre-set (by the factory) bookstore. This is only my understanding.
The Astak is not wireless and uses a USB cable to the computer. This meams you use a full-browser on the computer and can therefore buy from any eBook Store that uses Adobe Digital Editions for DRM OR you can go anywhere for FREE or non-DRM eBooks .
