I'm currently reading through Lolita and I've noticed a few typos. Nothing to drive me to complete distraction, but a slight annoyance nonetheless - especially when the Kindle edition cost almost the same as the print. (As I happen to have a tatty paperback of said title I was able to verify that such typos were indeed unique to the eBook.)
Nobody can be proofreading some of these books. They can't. Or, as JSWOLF has suggested, perhaps these 'proofreaders' (read: money-hungry CEOs) might better placed in a different job, or Room 101.
