The effects of hackers interest are not easy to estimate. What tends to be the case is that their work is used by folks who aren't hackers themselves, but are crafty enough to download and use the firmware.
The overall effect boosts(how much?) the functionality of the basic device, which increases probability of the same device being bought and used by folks who do buy B&N books.
