You won't. By the time the release date rolls around the ebook price will almost always drop to a price that is at least commensurate with the HB. And even if you pre-order the ebook at the higher price, you'll get it for the lower price when it comes time to actually "ship" (from Amazon anyway). Rarely (notice that's not "never") does anyone ultimately pay more for the ebook than the brand-new hardback.
