some kindle books (on the K2 at least) are now sporting little dots down in the progress bar. sometimes these are equivalent to chapter breaks, and sometimes they are more pronounced breaks in the book (like Book II of V). but not all Kindle books have them. not sure what the deal is. that is one of the more frustrating things with reading the kindle. gone is the flicking through to see when the next chapter is when you are trying to decide if you should put the book down. I just rely on the larger paragraph breaks. and then there is the rather longish book I read a couple of days ago that didn't have ANY chapters!
