I had thought about buying the electronic book a good time ago, but I didn't buy, because there was no "get the printed version cheaper if you buy the electronic version beforehand" option.
Maybe you could ask your publisher kindly to become a bit more realistic, so people begin to get accomodated to the electronic sales. The sad thing is: ------ Rapid GUI Programming with Python and Qt: The Definitive Guide to PyQt Programming - Retail Price: USD $49.99 RCBoth Print Book and Online Access Bundle - USD $67.48 RCOnline Online Access Only - USD $34.99 RCPrint Print Book Only - USD $34.99 - http://safari.informit.com/9780132354189#purchaseroughcuts ------ No chance I'd buy both under these conditions. Even though I'd have really liked helping in beta-reading the book (I became accustomed to always doing a bug-search on any book I read - even on fiction :) ).
