Sony Reader Sales statistics

Have your ever see sales statistics for Sony Reader and "its" Connect Store?

HarryT · 05-22-2007, 02:46 AM

No. What are they?

iliyad · 05-22-2007, 05:07 AM

I'm looking for this statistic but there's no information with it.

HarryT · 05-22-2007, 05:10 AM

I would suggest that you ask Sony, but I very much doubt they'll tell you - the information is probably regarded as commercially confidential.

I've never seen anything real on sales stats either.

What is it they say about "Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics...."

If Sony is a publicly traded company their corporate reports are on-line somewhere at their web-site (or one of their web-sites) and somewhere in a lengthy and boring report full of verbiage designed to put one to sleep before reaching the important details would be some sort discussion of the Reader and how sales are going and what projected sales would be. They don't discuss every device in such reports, but often corporations will discuss new items and show how well they're doing.

Am I going to go searching for such reports? No way.

But if someone is totally bored, or the boss is away and they want to play, the data is probably online somewhere.

Other than "better than expected" I don't think we've really heard anything out of Sony regarding Reader unit sales or Connect sales in a while.

Yeah, sure it is better! Thanks to a couple of very suspicious

entities, such as bhphotovideo and Gnome...who make their products available outside of the USA
