Point taken the first time you posted this reply.

I doubt Apple goes so far as to track how often people use an app on an iPhone (though I'm sure it could be tracked and gathered in a hidden log file somehow). Regardless, I do think it's heartening to see that so many people are at least curious enough to download an app that lets them read ebooks on their iPhones. Of course, not all may use it regularly or even keep the app, but this kind of distribution of an ebook reader app will hopefully draw the attention of publishers and cause them to focus more attention on ebook distribution and availability.
