Before buying the Cybook I did not think this was important.
Yes, I have read all your arguments in support of page numbers for short stories. I don't share your perspective there either. I've read several collections of short stories on my Cybook, and page numbers have never been a big deal for me with short stories. I don't need them and never really consider them for short stories even when reading a paper book collection of short stories.
