Analysts predict platform will capture 50 per cent of Android tablet market
Kindle e-book readers are apparently the hot gift this Christmas with Amazon reporting that the firm sold a million of the devices every week.
The world's largest online retailer also said that the Kindle Fire remained the top selling product on Amazon.com since it was introduced 11 weeks ago.
Amazon famously doesn't reveal sales figures but called the Kindle Fire "the most successful product we’ve ever launched."
The firm's previous e-ink based readers remain "close behind" the Kindle Fire in the firm's bestseller rankings.
IHS iSuppli forecast that Amazon would sell nearly 4 million Kindle Fires this year. Another analyst said that the Kindle Fire would capture 50 per cent of the Android tablet market.

Are you sure you've got your facts straight in the title? I think it's more likely that Amazon are selling 1m *Kindle* devices per week (as suggested by your 1st para), with the majority of those being the humble e-Readers. I'm sure the Fire is selling well, but I doubt it's selling 1m per week.
