I share your outrage, but I'm afraid I don't have any useful suggestions. I started a thread ages ago entitled 'Hall of Shame' in which I gave examples line by line as you did, and encouraged people to also give examples, and more importantly copy the review to the publisher. There was little response from the people on the forum, and very little response from the publisher or the vendor. Amazon did acknowledge, in one particularly flagrant example, that there were problems with the ebook and promised to fix it. But they haven't.

I'm almost ready to believe that the big companies and Amazon just don't care, and are in fact trying to discourage us from reading ebooks so they can get back selling print books.
