Hard to say. I dropped by the end cap it was on at my store, and was disappointed it was a demo, but I barely got to look at it because in the 10 minutes I was in that area, the endcap had people at it the whole time. Probably 6 different sets. Not sure if anyone BOUGHT one though.
However, a lot of those who couldn't get to the Kindle played with the Sony Readers that were in the aisle, right next to the Kindle encap. I know I spent a little time playiing with the Pocket Edition. The Sony display is live devices, with a video loop for each one.
