Heh, I found two typos in my Kindle version of
A Dance with Dragons last night. One was just a minor punctuation issue, but the second was Tyrion musing that he could "lose" only one bolt from his crossbow in a battle. But I agree with your overall point.
Bad editing turns me off a book right off as well, but since most e-publishers allow free samples, I find that I can separate the wheat from the chaff fairly quickly.
