I recall that Adobe and/or Amazon had this past year forbidden any ebook device from handling both secure Mobipocket and ADE ebooks. I loathe DRM removal and conversion tricks so I'm asking for all of us potential users for whom such tactics are not on the table.

I know there is an andriod ebook reader software out there. I don't see why it wouldn't work on this device. Of course you would have to read on the LCD and not the eInk... I think... not sure.
That said, I don't think that software supports and DRM so you would have to "liberate" your ebooks... if you could do that... why not just convert them to ePub which the Edge does support already.
