That is not 100% true. One of the recent DRMed Mobipocket eBooks I have had DRM that needed Mobipocker Reader to allow it to have the DRM removed. It needed a username/password to be able to read it and the only way to remove the UN/PW was to use Mobipocket Reader to send it to my SD card. Then I could remove the PID DRM. That won't work unless you have Windows.

Basically, if you do not have Windows, you can be well and truly screwed.
