My wife is a professional proofreader/editor. She cannot read books, paper or e, without finding tons of errors that she thinks a proofer SHOULD have caught.

There are more errors in eBooks, as a function of OCR error (although that should not be the case in books printed more recently) but I rarely find enough to damage my reading experience. I can usually figure out what is meant from context and you would be amazed at how much we tend to do so automatically.
