Would these be all ebooks or just Penguin ebooks. Do you have a statistical reference? I know at least 10 people who buy kindle books regularly. More than one a week. No-one I know has ever bought a Kobo book. Not that that means anything but I find it hard to believe that Kobo sells more actual ebooks anywhere than Amazon. If they did I would expect them to be announcing it.

Perhaps your editor would furnish us with a link to the ebook sales figures in Canada for kobo and Amazon?
