These are interesting numbers. This posted teaser says: Worldwide shipments for 2010 will reach 11.40 million units, up from 3.82 million in 2009 If you click through the ad for the paid report (goes here: http://www.digitimes.com/Reports/Report.asp?datepublish=2010/3/19&pages=RS&seq=400 http://www.digitimes.com/Reports/Report.asp?datepublish=2010... ), it has a neat index, prefaced by: Digitimes Research estimates that in 2008 worldwide e-book reader shipments were only 700,000 units, with Amazon and Sony being the major vendors.
