I've seen a few, probably a couple dozen over the last three years, mostly when flying. When my husband commuted by train he said he saw a few people with them a week. He saw one Sony, too. I know four other people with Kindles and one that regularly reads ebooks on his Android phone. Of course, I'm surprised how rarely I see people reading books in public.
Most of my public reading is when I'm waiting at the doctor's office or some other kind of waiting room. I'll generally see a couple people pick up the free magazines, about half are doing something on their phone (maybe reading). The rest are staring into space. Occasionally there is one other person besides me reading a paper book. I actually saw one person reading a K2 while at the lab the other day. That was my first hospital ebook reader sighting.
