November isn't even technically over yet, but Amazon's Kindle has already hit a new monthly sales record. The retailer issued a statement today to that effect, but didn't actually release any specific sales number. It did add, however that the e-book reader is, "the most wished for, the most gifted, and the number one bestselling product across all product categories on Amazon."

Despite the addition of a few new players in the market--including, most notably, Barnes & Noble's new Nook--the Kindle continues to be the most well-known e-book reader on the market, and will no doubt continue to sell well into the holidays.
