Whatever -- I don't live in a perfect world, so I try not to get too irritated about it. Sorry if I stepped on any toes.
Now. Where did I say anything about typos?
(For the record, I only notice typos when I hit around the tenth one in the book, and if its that bad, I can usually collect a list of dozens and dozens. I correct them myself assuming it's something I want to reread.)

My reply wasn't directed at you, eschwartz; it was about the entire topic. My sincere apologies if you thought I was ranting AT you. Not at all. Just the whole..."every ebook has to be endlessly fungible to satisfy every type of reading and formatting appetite, and, oh, yeah, let's get all the typos fixed while we're at it, too" mindset. That's all.
