Well obviously
I don't know, but like I said I'd be interested in seeing the stats, and of course, how they were arrived at e.g. if a kindle book was bought on an iPad and sent to an iPad, then I'd expect that to count as an iPad sale, no? Similarly, the data that Amazon must gather during the 'whispersync' process must give an idea of which devices the book is principally being read on, and again, it would be interesting to see the data for that.
Of course, given that Amazon aren't even forthcoming about how many kindle devices they've sold, then I think the chances of getting sales and usage data out of them are pretty slim!
