Since the Kindle is not sold outside the U.S. and the Sony readers are, it's reasonable to assume Sony has sold at least 340,000 in the rest of the world.

That may not actually be the case since sony haven't actually made that much of an effort out of north america either, the uk have had the 505 for about a year, but its been less than 6 months for the likes of germany and france with the rest of europe being overlooked until the new series of devices.
Did sony ever release any e-readers in the asian markets?
