Even printed books contain errors - in worse cases up to a rate of around 0.3%. The rate differs very much from book to book. 150 errors in a printed novel with 50.000 words are no rarity.

I guess it would be pointless to expect less errors in a ebook - ebook contents are made by humans and hence they will contain errors.
