Yes, but lots of those devices sold aren't to Americans, so won't be buying American books. So you can't assume all X devices are going to feed into US book sales.
If a Norwegian that only reads in Norwegian buys a kindle, sales of US 'Reporting Publisher' books from that device = zero, forever.
You are right about independent etc. though. Of the several hundred I bought last year, I think a handful only would get counted in US publisher reporting sales.
E.g. the other dozen would be UK or Australian publishers.
