Personally, I'd have
Cover
Title Page
(Possibly Dedication)
Parts
Everything else
I generally read Mobipocket format eBooks. They have a "Go To" menu that's usually populated with links to Start of Book, Table of Contents, etc. So to navigate in the book, I just bring up that menu and choose.
For example, the book I'm reading now "Morality for Beautiful Girls" has the following items on the "Go To" menu:
First Page
Start Reading
Table of Contents
Last Page
So getting to the Table of Contents takes the same time no matter where it is. So there's no point in having it at the front, although this book does do that.
I have a CyBook, so no touch screen. When reading a book it's quite quick to being up the main menu, select to the Go To menu, and then choose a desination from there.

Is that right? Do you do this so that you can get right into the book? Does your reader have a touchscreen, or way to navigate links?
