I can't be the only person who is thoroughly fed up with Adobe and the problems with their DRM system. I have spent large amounts of money on DRM'd pdf books and am unable to read any of them. I can't get their stupid new Digital Editions to work, and I can't transfer any new books to my Palm pda.

I think we need to organise a campaign to stop publishers using PDF for DRM'd ebooks. Their customers are getting ripped off, but it's the fault of Adobe, not the publishers.

Any thoughts?
