No case law, and I'm not even a little bit confident, given how little most judges and juries know about modern technology. I mean, look at how many jail-breaking stuff (iPhone, Playstation) turns into ZOMG PIRACY!! circuses.
And someone wouldn't even have to hack YOU. How secure are the Amazon servers? B&N? Kobo? All those little book sellers? Dropbox -- where your books have to be
public in order for you to download them remotely via Aldiko and the like? I wouldn't bet my future on it. Watermarked books make me very nervous. /paranoid
