What's the average age of Kindle owners?

What do you think is the average age of a Kindle owner?

My first guess would have been youngish adults (30 or so) that are pretty computer savy and like electronic gadgets. Well, that just describes me, so maybe I haven't thought the whole thing out, really. The article below, which is just some dude's opinion, and not based on data, suggests that maybe the average age is more like 45. He thinks more seniors are interested in the kindle than (I) might expect because it might be easier to hold than a book, and because the font size can be increased. This dude also suggests older people might have more income and be able to afford the device better than those still early in their careers.

What do you think?
