Very few people read books. If the kindle is doing as well as what an analyst said Amazon will be very pleased to publish the numbers because it has great impact on the price of Amazon shares. They are artificially keeping stock low so that there will be a long waiting list. If they are selling that well they will crank up the production (great for conference call) but they are reluctant to do so.

The reason they came out with this gadget is because books are not selling as well as before and they hope that it will revive the book reading habits They copied the ipod idea of storing songs in the HDD by storing books in HDD. One thing they failed to realize is that reading a book consume a lot of time and the internet had trained us to go for shorter and concise stories. And also made us very impatient.

Yes those who love to read books and novel will read them but, I am sad to say, they are very few in between.
