TechCrunch is now backpedaling that report to state that Amazon has received 240,000 Kindles into inventory. Units accepted into inventory, verses units sold to customers. Two far different things, indeed, even though Citigroup analyst Mark Mahaney used this thin data point to take his unit forecasts into the year 2010. Which took the stock up near 10% WTF?
