Its impossible to know (because Amazon hides its figures)but we do know there are 160M iOS owners out there and that Apple has sold more Ipads in nine months than Amazomn has sold Kindles in 3 years.

Lets put it this way. If Apple went all out to dominate the ebook market, it quite likely could. Its not really trying right now.
WTF? You don't even have a clue do you? I think it's time for ignore for you.
