Seriously, everyone can have what they want only now Amazon has chosen to hide it behind a MENU button and does not have a location range any more.
If locations are to terrific, how come Amazon does not have the total location value on its Book Description info but still uses the archaic Page numbers. Sometimes I want to know a book is "meaty" and will last me a long reading session. I need to know if the book has 13,479 locations!

Pages are superior for a DTB. Because the book doesn't know where you are when you are reading on a given page and because the book cannot change font, text size, etc. Locations are superior on a Kindle. And my beef is that they didn't give an option to keep the locations where they are. They just implemented a one-size policy without my input and without a little checkbox.
