Well, here's what the official blurb is .... The Kindle Store currently carries more than 190,000 books plus newspapers, magazines, and blogs. For your convenience, you can shop the Kindle Store directly on Kindle or on your PC via Amazon.com. Either way, all titles are wirelessly delivered right to your Kindle for free. We pay for the wireless delivery charges so you don’t have to. Buy a book and we auto-deliver it to you wirelessly in one minute. You can download and view most books purchased from the Kindle Store for your personal use on up to six Kindles provided they are registered to your Amazon.com account. Newspapers, magazines, and blogs may only be downloaded to one Kindle.
However, I really cannot imagine why anyone would want to have more than the six that can share media on the same account. There doesn't seem to be any way to take a book off the Kindle (in a way that would release it to another Kindle that was authorized to that same account). In addition, the Kindle account only lets you purchase one copy of any book. If you try to purchase a second copy, it tells you that you already own a copy of that book and goes no further with the transaction.
So, if you had 12 Kindles on one account it does not seem that you would be able to purchase two copies of any one book to spread around all 12 Kindles. It would seem to be a freaking nightmare logistically if you were trying to manage this on a large institutional scale.
