I am not sure about drm built in the kernel, but if it's built as a module,
what's the problem to do rmmod module-name?

Provided that somehow it's possible to get root and shell to the device.

Besides, I wouldn't buy a ereader with wifi. Just a reminder, kindle (by
amazon) and they deleted automatically from users the book 1984. They can do
the same to evrit.
