So that means I will not touch this 'downgrade' with a stick. Page numbers are in my opinion something left from the late middle ages when we went from scroll to book. They are arteficial and useless in eBooks. But locations can come in handy to find the exact positon in a book. The Kindle crashes every now and then and than it usefull that I know that I was reading somewere arround position 1234.
But now they are gone from my view and I have to look them up.
