If it's a book I know I'll want to read immediately (say, next book in a series I love, or new book by a favourite author), then yes, I do pre-order the ebook. I read a lot of books and a lot of series and my memory isn't such that I could remember the exact release date for every single one of those "want as soon as it's available" books - some of the absolute favourite ones, yes, but with others the best I can do is remember that "the sequel will be out some point later this year".

Also, I've had quite a few instances of price temporarily dropping a bit at some between pre-order and release day, and in all of those cases, Amazon has adjusted my pre-order price to that lowest point, so if it's a book I'll want to read immediately, pre-ordering has often been advantageous price-wise as well. If it's a book I want to read but "at some point", not right away, then I'm more than fine with putting it on a wish list and waiting for the price to drop later on.
