6M Kindle Fires Sold

1/30/2012

 
Analysts estimate 6 million Kindle Fires were sold in the 4th Qtr of 2011. Amazon lost a small amount of money on each sale, but plan to make up for the loss with increased eBook purchases. The story now becomes the electronic turf battle between Apple's iPad, Barnes & Noble's Nook and the Fire. Note: If you are currently an Amazon author and offer your book at a lower price elsewhere, you will be dropped.
