DVD zones - ecammit

Probably not. As far as I know zone decoding is done by the DVD drive's hardware. Unless you have an illegal decryption software program, nothing will circumvent that.

DVD zones - mtoda

I don't know about the legality of the firmware upgrades in France, but, as long as you read all the instructions, it appears to be a fairly safe process. Just be very aware that should the process fail, neither Apple, nor the developer will repair or replace the drive for free. Many people have successfully modified their PowerBooks and iBooks. (I will neither admit, nor deny, having modified my 'Books.)
I'm sure if you do a search, you'll be able to find out if the specific DVD drive in your PB is one that can be upgraded.
