ipad had 300,000 the first weekend.

it took kindle/sony/nook a _year_ to move that many.

ipad has 500,000 now, less than one month out...

it took kindle/sony/nook _18_months_ to sell that many.

are you disputing who the eventual winner will be?

or are we just arguing about how long it will take the ipad
to go ahead?

how long has the kindle been out now?
just to make it easy on myself, i'll say that
when the ipad has been out _that_long_,
on that date its sales will have surpassed
sales made by the kindle/sony/nook trio
on that date.  (and likely by a large margin.)

and if you want certainty, bracket a period
a-year-before that date and a-year-after...
