Putting it on two consecutive pages you cannot see together means the reader has to flip the pages back and forth... Not convenient.

So possibility to see two pages at e-reader, side by side might be of great utility for some types of texts.
In such a case it would also be nice to have an option to go only one page forward or back so that the figure and text show at the same time. That is one of my frustrations with real books and another potential advantage for electronic books.
