Analyst: Amazon on pace to sell 3M Kindles in '10

E-mail Print PDF

Amazon KindleIt's pretty apparent we've reached a tipping point in consumer acceptance of eReaders, if analyst Doug Anmuth is correct in his prediction that Amazon will sell three-million or so Kindles in 2010.

That represents a 62 percent increase over Kindle sales in 2009. Overall, Kindle-related sales could reach $1.6 billion this year, which could end up representing 5 percent of Amazon's bottom line. Not bad, as that number will only grow in coming years.

Anmuth is an analyst with Barclays Capital.
