If that's true, that would kind of ruin the Elipsa for schoolbook PDFs or programming PDF books (from somewhere like O'Reilly) wouldn't it?

Maybe I don't fully understand the issue.

BTW, I note in your link that the Elipsa has a USB-C with OTG — so will it work with thumb drives and a keyboard?
I wondered the same regarding limitations with DRM'd PDFs. And regarding the USB-C -- good question. I was hoping that someone here could offer more information. There seems to be a lot of unknowns (at least to me).
