The company also painted a picture of accelerating growth in its sales of e-books, which can be read on the Kindle and on a host of other devices, including Apple's iPad and iPhone. Amazon said that Kindle e-book sales had overtaken Amazon's hardback book sales.

Over the last month, the Seattle-based Internet retailer sold 180 Kindle e-books for every 100 hardcover books it sold.
