I don't believe that is true.

I have been looking back at older firmware versions and as far as I can tell that code that allows DRM to be modified without a full firmware update is present in firmware version 5.12.2.2 (only released for two Kindle models) and versions 5.15.1 or greater.

The Kindle Voyage maxed out at firmware version 5.13.6, so as far as I can tell it should be unable to receive the new DRM.

It would be nice to get confirmation of this one way or another from Voyage owners.
