While I agree with you completely I just don't consider reading on a tablet an option.
Yes, DRM is an issue. Personally, when paying about the same or more for a DRM-e-book than for the real thing I consider it fair game and morally acceptable for me to strip the DRM (no one can claim that I'm getting a cheaper version because of DRM when the DRM crap costs more than a physical book).
Currently this is childs play so I'm gambling somewhat on that this won't change or my e-reader won't be able to new books from certain places.
Of course, this makes me a criminal.

Having a dedicated e-rader for each format is not an option. General purpose tablet handles such cases much better. About "criminality" of breaking DRM, this nonsense is really annoying. More people should support campaigns like this one: http://fixthedmca.org http://fixthedmca.org
