I think one of the major problems with ebook pricing is greed. Many publishers set a price for an ebook and leave it that way forever. There are tons of books on Amazon that are $12.99 for the ebook and the hardback is $2 simply to get rid of the hardbacks. The ebook is not taking up any space in a warehouse waiting to be shipped out.
Ebooks should be around $6 in my opinion. I would even say $10 for new books and $6 for anything 6 months or older. These prices are for your standard novel.
