Niche status of eink ownership, I don't doubt. Purchase of ebook content, I would like to know the numbers.

If I wasn't clear before, I'm less interested in econtent, and more interested in ebooks.

If nothing else, since we keep seeing things like "In fact the majority of people do use an app on a phone, and secondarily on a tablet. The eink is 3rd place.", I would be interested in seeing the numbers.

I don't want to project, but reading novels on a phone seems questionable? Sure, casual reading, one or two a year, but 20, 30, 50, ...?
