The Cybook does not use page numbers and, really, for an electronic book on an electronic book reader, page numbers are not very relevant - at least the page numbers that are associated with a paper book. The progress indicator that runs along the bottom of the screen is a much better indicator for an electronic reading device.
Have you tried reading a short story collection on the Cybook and one were some of the stories are bad so if they are short you will finish them but otherwise you will skip them? Page number is irrelevant but an indicator that tells how long a chapter or a short story is is very relevant and for me necessary.

Before buying the Cybook I did not think this was important.
