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.
Looked at that way I see little chance of them opening up to other reader formats such as ePub.
