Not necessarilly.
All it takes is a lot of Smartphone users buying Kindle books.
(Aren't there supposed to be a hundred million iPhones? Plus Blackberries, Androids, etc To sa nothing of PCs.)
Remember, Kindle is a reader app too, not just a gadget.
Still, Amazon *is* selling a lot of Kindles. (Remember their brag, earlier this years about having sold *millions* of Kindles? Nobody stood up to say "me too!")
And the numbers *have* to be right or the SEC is going to want to know why not; they are very specific about authors and sales. No smoke and mirrors in that part of the release.
