I do not understand the Locations system. To what do the numbers correspond? Is there any way/hack/anything to translate these locations into conventional page numbers.
The Kindle seems like a fine device. However, in the instance of page numbers it would seem that Sony has the upper hand. At least when I have a more conventional system (i.e. 17 of 405 -or whatever) I get some idea of how far I am in the book in question. The location system is gibberish to me at this time.

That, and page numbers don't make much sense in a system where every change of font sizes is going to change the number of potential pages.
I've only had my Kindle a little over a week, but I have already gotten very used to the numbering system. And, with the ease of bookmarking, searching and annotating, I have found that most of the time it simply doesn't matter to me what "page" I am on. I can always find what I want or where I was in the book.
