And I believe the article is mentioning readers sales not ebook sales. I think no company reveals true numbers about ebook sales at this moment (B&N, Sony, Apple, Amazon, etc), just a rounded number which is deceiving and not good for statistics. But retailers can provide exact numbers of readers which were sold. After all, numbers of readers sold are a good indicator of how many ebooks you also sold.
