Quite right. I wasn't clear. What I'm really saying is that I don't use Preface, Acknowledgements, or any such hemming and hawing at all any longer, in ebooks or in print.
I had a book published in 2007 that, ever since Look Inside came to live with us (2010?), gave me fits, knowing that everyone was going to get bored with the Preface/Acknowledgements before ever getting into the meat of the thing. Luckily for my self-respect if not for my sales, the publisher gave it back to me in January last year, and I could publish a new edition that moved all that stuff to where it really belonged (or eliminated it altogether).
