It's definitely true. Some things are better left to the happy teenage or childhood memories
I had fallen in love with W/H and remember discovering her webpage back in the magforce 7 days of the early 90's, when the interwebs wasn't as mainstream as it is today. Just for the hell of it, I sent an email to Weis and I got a reply. That was probably one of the highlights of my younger days
There even used to be newsgroups discussing Dragonlance, I remember W/H actually being a part of the discussions at a couple points.
Far as seeing them in (legal) ebook form anytime soon, probably not going to happen until a giant asteroid smashes us all to pieces. Last I heard, W/H did not meet Hasbro's expectations and were therefore pretty much forbidden from writing in the universe they created. Wizards/Hasbro is a company that doesn't seem to "get it," I mean, have any of you even seen the bastardized versions of Magic:Online they created?
But, a general search through Amazon appears that they are STARTING to release some of their IP's in ebook form. Or at least the ones that still make MegaCorp enough money to be happy....see Drizzt. Your best bet may be to try the devil directly and email someone from MegaCorp, maybe we'll have better luck going to the source/publisher than through the distributor.
I do however have a couple of dogeared DL paperbacks that have been well loved through the years, if you're interested. . .
I also have reisssued hardcovers with new paintings that an ex girlfriend bought me directly thru MW, which had been autographed and personalized...those you'll have to pry from my cold dead hands though
