I used to buy a lot of pbooks, before Amazon I'd hit the bookstores once a month or so and purchase a stack of MMPBs. I carried a book with me where ever I went and read constantly. When I traveled I would carry plenty of reading material and leave it behind when I finished.
I actually purchase more ebooks now because of the ease and availability. I stopped looking in bookstores years ago and don't even peruse the books at Costco anymore.
Publishers delaying the release of ebook versions will lose me as a customer. By the time the ebook is available I will have forgotten about the book or have lost interest. Plus, if I really want to read it, I'll hit the library. In the U.S. that means the author only is paid for the one time sale to the library.
