Other than that, I just keep seeing statements that ebook sales are increasing more and more each month.

I wonder how much of this is due to all the people with new e-readers, looking to buy their first e-books with stars in their eyes. Sooner or later, the new car smell will be gone from their devices, and they'll start to consider what they are involved in. And also, sooner or later, the numbers of new buyers will start to diminish. Only then will we be able to make long-term predictions based on short-term trends.
