This is a grey area of the law. Many people are of the OPINION that DRM removal for personal use is not illegal in the USA, but until a case actually comes to court and a judge decides, nobody actually knows one way or the other.
Practically speaking, nobody's going to care if you remove DRM from eBooks that you've legitimately bought. Just don't go shouting it from the rooftops.
In other countries, the situation is a lot clearer. Here in the UK, for example, DRM removal is unquestionably illegal.
