The solution is to buy ebooks from small publishers who *do* release them alongside print editions, and send the occasional letter to big publishers saying, "I just bought from your competition because you're not selling what I want to buy."
I agree 100%.

Eventually as eBooks pick up in volume they will be forced to move to a different method of pricing and distribution, I'm sure it wont be the "sell them all for $2.00" method that some people want, on the other hand it most likely wont be the "wait a year for the eBook" method that some publishers seem to have right now.
