Amazon Names Top CE Sellers Of 2011

By Alan Wolf -- TWICE, December 29, 2011

Seattle - The Kindle Fire, iPod Touch and Samsung's Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch smartphone were among Amazon.com's top-selling CE products of 2011.
The list, compiled by the nation's fourth-largest CE retailer exclusively for TWICE, serves as a best-seller barometer for the industry given the breadth of Amazon's CE assortment.
Leading the PC and tablet category was the company's proprietary Kindle Fire tablet. The $199 device became the best-selling product of all soon after its introduction 13 weeks ago, while its e-reader siblings, the Kindle Touch and basic Kindle, were Amazon's second and third best-selling products of the holiday season, with Kindle devices cumulatively selling at a rate of more than 1 million SKUs per week throughout December, the company said.
Amazon's second best-selling tablet of the year was the Hewlett-Packard Touchpad, followed by the Asus Eee Pad Transformer.
In home electronics, the year-end list was led by three streaming media players: Apple TV and two 1080p Roku models.
In wireless, Samsung's Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G Android phone for Sprint led the pack, followed by Motorola's Droid Razr 4G Android phone for Verizon Wireless, although the order was reversed during the holiday selling season.
In digital imaging, the No. 1 best-seller of the year was Canon's PowerShot Elph 300 HS 12.3-megapixel digital camera, followed by the Flip UltraHD video camera and Canon's PowerShot S95 10-megapixel digital camera.
Within the portable electronics category, Apple's fourth-generation iPod Touch was No. 1, followed by the Garmin Nuvi 1400 series and the sixth-generation iPod Nano.
In other Amazon news, the company said its third-party marketplace sellers enjoyed record growth over the holiday season, with the number of sellers exceeding $5,000 in sales, increasing 44 percent year over year. For all of 2011, businesses on Amazon sold hundreds of millions of units worth billions of dollars worldwide, the company said.
