^ I think the page numbers are great and don't understand why you can't have both. For me, I don't change font sizes or orientation and read on one device. I really like knowing how 'big' this new book is in relation to the one I just finished. Gives me a sense of how long it is going to take me to read - something that is much harder to get with just a percentage.
As far as percentages complete, ibooks doesn't give you a specific number, but you can tell relatively easily by looking at the progress bar - as far as I can tell, each little dot represents 5%.
That said, while I don't have one yet, it looks like the Kindle 3 (all kindles??) show the end location number (the kindle iphone app does not). So, yes, you can use that as your 'page number' and reference for book 'size'.
