Kindle is advertised regularly in the New York Times Book Review (full page ads) and in display ads in magazines like The Atlantic -- that is, places where people who read books are likely to see an ad -- in addition to TV and YouTube. I have yet to see Sony do the same.

It might be different where you are, but here the only readers you ever seem to see in real world book shops are Sony (and the odd no-name Chinese import). That, I would say, would be a very good form of advertising.
