Amazon sold combined, more devices than anything else in Europe alone. Pandigital was second I believe.
I don't know why you keep insisting that Amazon and Kindle is not a success in USA and most Latin and European countries.
We all know you love and like your Sony ereader, but you really look silly every time that you try to argue or dismiss Amazon's success.

I'm not trying to dismiss Amazon's success. I'm dismissing these numbers that are not accurate. Kindles are not as popular outside the US as you seem to think it is. ePub is the format outside the USA. And I am wondering how popular the Kindle is inside the USA. We have Sony, B&N, Kobo, and other and then the Kindle. 67% seems a bit high (IMHO). If Amazon is 67% and B&N is say 25%, that would total 92%. 8% between Sony, Kobo, and other ePub based readers? That makes little to no sense.

People who are actually interested on reading a novel, don't really care about the file format. They will display basically the same. The main difference is for books with complex layouts and images. And still, I mostly read computer books and Kindle does a fantastic job!

A blockquote is not a complex layout. yet Mobipocket won't render it properly.
