Still the takeover of eReader by B&N, and the fact that no other dedicated device supports eReader at present probably means that a lot more work has to be done to develop device specific support, while taking care to ensure that the core code is easily portable to new devices as they come along.

Also keep in mind that eReader was talking about moving to ePUB as well, but with their own DRM, you have nice recipe for slowing things down.
As I understand it, the only issue that was left was the licensing agreement.

I noticed that Eslick also hasn't gotten approval for E-reader support.

Hopefully, B&N is not being restrictive in their licensing...
