There was a USA today article a few months ago that stated 2 Million. A more recent article from USA today stated 4 Million. It's somewhere around 2-4 Million. The number was for North America, so maybe half of them were sold in Canada...:rolleyes:
The growth is exponential, so by the end of 2003, expect double the number and by the end of 2004 double that number. After 2004, growth will slow but the number of sets sold will still increase each year until about 1/2 of homes have them. After that the number sold per year will start to drop. This is a classic growth, decline curve. Same happened for DVD players. DVD players are now just over 5 years old.
