What is happening is we have people here quoting articles that guess on what's going on inside the US borders. The world does not stop at the US borders. I've read lots of things saying that this reader and that reader are top readers in other countries and they aren't Kindles. They are ePub capable readers like Pocketbook or Sony or Onyx. Plus, I also read of publisher putting out in non-English in ePub. I read more of ePub related things outside the US then anything truly Kindle related. I base the face that ePub is #1 because it is. I also base that on the fact that eBooks do not begin and end in the USA.
