But seriously, part of the reason might be that the Kindle is probably the easiest to use by a non-techie, and the most heavily advertised to the general population. |
that really sounds likely. Maybe since Amazon sells so many books, they have insight into where best to spend the advertising bucks. So, seeing how they market the Kindle would be an indicator who are currently the most active readers.
In this case if they get the parents into the devices then as the platform matures the kids will have come to consider the readers like a piece of furniture or any currently ubiquitous device. Think the MP3 market went at it from the other direction based on the same sort of analysis?
