Could you clarify this please?

1. the Kindle gives you "location" and a progress bar
What do you mean "location"? The way Sony is doing it page 117 of 967 seems to be the most natural way of representing "location". Before reading reviews on CyBook I could not even imagine it might be different.

2. page turns on the Kindle are slightly faster
even faster than on 505, correct? I suspected it would be the case though.
