I also have this problem with I, Claudius. I gave a scathing review of it (the ebook, not the "real" book) on the Waterstone's website. "Kate" from Waterstone's said: "I'm sorry that you had problems with this eBook. We will feed your comments back to the publisher so that the issues can be resolved."
Which simply won't happen.
ePenguins are not trying to drive us back to print media. By releasing a shoddy product now, they are leaving the way open to release a "remastered" edition of the e-book, rather like the Beatles Remastered, and re-re-remastered and so on - not happy with selling us a CD once, we apparently have to buy it four or five times. It'll be the same with ebooks. I think I'll sign up to the Folio Society. Those editions, at least, are permanent.
