Right now there are 229,319 Kindle books listed on Amazon. When do you think this number will hit 250,000 and 300,000 (month & year).
My guesses:

250,000 - May 2009

300,000 - Feb 2010

As fast as they are moving, I would say
250k by May 2009
300k by Oct 2009

I wish I could remember exactly, but I believe there were approximately 199,000 in November 2008. 
If I'm correct, that's 30,000(approx.) in two-plus months. 
One of the reasons I went ahead and purchased mine instead of waiting till March, as I had originally planned, was that they were adding books to the store pretty quickly.
