According to research firm eDataSource, Amazon took 500,000 pre-orders for the Kindle Fire tablet before October 28th, and sold over 1 million to retail partners during the same time frame.
Additionally, the firm says some people are actually buying multiple devices, which is almost unheard of for tablets.
Says Carter Nicholas of eDS:
I think it resets the bar. In our data, we're seeing people ordering two and three of them. That's not the majority of people, but it is showing up.
