Yes, but since Amazon is selling books at a loss you can blame them for not selling the ebook at the price you want.

I can't search my ebooks. And I don't have a dictionary on my device. That's why you pay more for the device, not the ebook. I don't have a Kindle. It's not like the publishers are only going to charge more for Kindle books. They're going to make all ebook distributors jack up their prices.
And your second comment, I don't understand. In this case Amazon
shouldn't be selling them at a loss. The book is in mass market paperback, the ebook price should reflect that. Amazon takes a loss on the 9.99 "hardcovers," and maybe a few of the "paperback" ebooks.
If Amazon is charging more for this ebook all on their own, I can see your point. I highly doubt that is the case though.
