Numbers of sales of various electronic devices tend to be kept secret.
Surely if that figure is huge then you'd advertise that fact. As the world's number one you'd want to stay there. 'Over 20m e-readers sold worldwide, they can't all be wrong' - or something along those lines. :whistle:

Not necessarily. The question is very much, what is huge? You see this in consoles and phones where they spend ages arguing about the numbers and expectation management. Some of this is also the e-reader market, where e-readers are relatively rarer than people think they are. You would get all kinds of silly journalistic pieces by 'tech' journalists writing stories about is this the 'death' of the e-reader because it only sold x hundred thousand per time t? Or they would write the Kindle 6th generation is a disaster because it sold less in period whatever. And so on.

And certainly the new aura HD does look interesting:-
1440x1080 aura HD res (6.8 inches compared to 6) compares to
758x1024 kindle paperwhite
758v1024 kobo glo
600v800 earlier kindles.
600v800 kobo touch etc

A lot of them use pearl now anyway.
