I have a Sony reader and live in Brooklyn, NY. I use the subway daily and I've only ever seen 1 other person with the same reader. Since the Kindles release, I've seen 2 people reading on them on the subway.
I believe that's a significant difference.
I believe that there's also more interest in digital reading since the release of the kindle. The price is the biggest issue.
