It would have meaning. You will soon learn how long it takes to read a specific amount of pages in a specific font size. You can also note not down "page 234/4" which would for me mean page 234 in size 4. I am really missing the page number and the total number of pages and will be extremely disappointed if they are not available in the coming firmware update.
