Typos are rampant in the ebooks, especially in the various cheapo ones I might buy. I notice the same thing on various professional websites, too. There's something about typing for a digital audience that seems to make publishers care less about making sure every word is right. It suggests they think they're more ephemeral in nature than the printed (on paper) word, which is, I suppose, true. This annoys me greatly and is another reason to hold onto "real" books of titles/authors you really enjoy.
