It's a guesstimate by CNN, but if they're on the ball park, that's very high. I wonder if people are buying the Fire on the assumption that it is a full blown tablet (i.e., a cheap iPad), and not an enhanced eReader.
It doesn't help that sites like one of the zdnet blogs keeps running articles along the lines of "Kindle Fire vs iPad" and "Kindle Fire Better Deal than iPad" and so on. I think there is too much comparison of two very different items without enough clear information about why they are so different. *I* know why they are so different, but not everyone who wants a tablet knows tons about tablets so they turn to articles like those that rarely give more than half the story. People need better info. They need to come to MobileRead, darn it!
