Their solution is easy: return the Amazon Kindle WiFi within 30 days for a no questions asked refund. Why complain, just send it back.
Personally, I find locations far more accurate than pages in a pBook. They get you to the EXACT WORD you've last read. Pages numbers cannot do that.

Don't be ridiculous. It's not an issue worth a "OMG RETURNING NOW" reaction, rather it's an annoyance for former book readers. Think about it. The Kindle is intended to lure paper fans to this new-fangled e-ink thingy. Well, guess what? The first thing that perplexes us is the strange "locations" function of the Kindle.
At the minimum, Amazon should add page numbers WITHOUT removing locations. That way, everyone is happy. You change the font, the page number changes, but the location remains in-tact for hardcore college referencing requirements. Everyone is happy.
