We were just coming from different experiences. I was really worried about devices that don't paginate at all or don't save the pagination and can't reuse it. My experience with multiple readers is on PDA's and PC's. I only have one dedicated reader, the eb1150. On PDA's I have seen problems without pagination at all on MobiPocket devices, although I now understand that this is fixed on the iLiad. I also have experienced poor pagination performance on the digital editions on a pc.
Even PDF files are repaginated on the device is reflow is supported. Only the non-reflow implementations insist on original page sizes, although for reference purposes original page numbers have their uses, particularly if you are reviewing a document and want to reference a location for another user on another different device.
It is this kind of pagination issues such as no permanent pagination and need for original pagination and pagination performance that I was originally wanting to talk about.
