ADE 1.8 is currently in 'Preview', and does not have the ability to proxy/copy protected ePubs to supported ereaders. When the release version comes out, it will be able to do that.
But ordinarily B&N ebooks can be read on ereaders without using ADE to move them over. The ereader has to:
- run appropriate RMSDK version (whatever that is)
- implement the password dialog
Sony definitely has not done the latter. But
if they are using a current/recent RMSDK then it is possible that ADE 1.8 release version could workaround that by creating the necessary 'activation record' that is needed to open the book. That is, however, a second 'if'. So if this is important to you, wait until ADE 1.8 release version comes out and see if it works then. If not, we may still not know exactly why, but we'll at least know that it's probably not going to be possible without some change on Sony's part.
