Yes, but I've had a few people ask me about my ebook reader, and each of them referred to the Kindle. The Kindle is also what have been the focus of what little information about ebook readers that I have seen in Danish news channels. People seem to prefer short, easy names - walkman vs. portable cassette player, ipod vs. mp3 player .... kindle vs. ebook reader??
