I've actually gone back to buying pbooks when the price is lower than the ebook. When you are finished with the pbook, make sure to donate, lend or re-sell the pbook so it further impacts the publisher's sales.
I've also taken to buying used books at amazon. I just bought three used hardcover books from amazon for 2.99-3.99 each instead of paying 7.99-11.99 for the ebooks. When I'm done reading them, I will pass them on to someone else.
