Actually, it only leads in the US. Globally, the kindle is a drop in the bucket. Last I saw, they had 28% of the market share for ebook sales in the US (Q2 2009) and 45% of the reader market in the US. Globally speaking, I think the kindle only has like a 4% share, since the Kindle is not available yet outside of North America.
