Just for info, I returned Friday night and noticed that the same kiosk no longer had any Readers inside. I think there had been two there when I saw it five days earlier. Okay, let's assume 3 Readers are sold each week from each kiosk. There are five terminals in that airport and let's assume Sony has a kiosk in each terminal in two dozen major airports in the U.S. or roughly 100 kiosks. That would be 15,000 Sony Readers sold from airport kiosks each year and I'd say that was a fairly optimistic estimate.
