I have the Kobo Wireless e-reader.

I was about 250 pages into a book but I recently did a "restore to factory defaults" in order to troubleshoot a problem with my wi-fi connectivity. I understood that doing a factory reset would cause me to lose my bookmarks. But now I want to resume where I left off but there doesn't appear to be a way to go directly to a page by page number.

This particular book, The Idiot by Dostoyevsky is divided into "Parts" and each part is subdivided into many chapters. Unfortunately those chapters are not part of the table of contents (only the "Parts" are). So now it appears the only way that I can get back to where I was is to keep hitting next, next, next..

Please tell me there's a better way of doing it.
