HOW MANY KINDLE FIRE TABLETS HAS AMAZON SOLD?

A LOT.

Alice Wentworth just groaned.

"The estimate is that Amazon.com has now sold 850,000 units direct from the Amazon.com site.

Total sales would be substantially larger," Carter Nicholas, CEO of eDataSource said today.

Amazon may have sold as many as 2 million or more so far when you consider all sales channels."

It may be even more.

Actually, if the latest report out of Taipei is true,

then the Kindle Fire has turned out to be hotter than expected.

Amazon is currently shipping between 3 and 4 million Kindle Fire units,

according to a new report from DigiTimes.

Although Quanta Computer,

the company responsible for manufacturing the $199 Android tablet,

has declined to comment, DigiTimes is standing by this finding based on reports from “industry watchers.”

These “watchers” also predict that Wintek,

another company heavily involved with the production of the Kindle Fire, will ship about 3 to 3.5 million touch panels for the Kindle Fire before January.

Furthermore, Amazon is reportedly planning to hit the 5 million unit mark by the end of December or at least early January 2012.


To support Amazon’s reported investment,

a recent survey from Retrevo.com found that more current and non-current tablet owners replied that they are planning to buy a Kindle Fire over an iPad during the 2011 holiday season.

Furthermore, Retrevo also posited that the Kindle Fire might be the most manly gift for the holidays as well.

BOTTOM LINE?

If you're planning to buy a Kindle Fire, you better not wait too long to do it.
