nook for technical/reference books?`

Hi all, I am pretty heavily invested in kindle (dx I paid "double" for as I registered it then found out it was a blacklisted craigslist) and a touch. I have about 40 computer books and the new "update" destroyed the table of contents functionality for me.

So as I get ready to switch ecosystems going forward I have a few questions...

1) is there a fully functional toc on the nook books like I used to have on my kindle?

2) do pretty much all books have page numbers which I feel is much more intuitive then the position 3486 out of 10427 that I have suffered though on the kindles?

3) can I quickly flip through pages and how does that work? I believe I read you can do that on the nook and I would love that ability.

4) are there visual roadmaps for where you are in the book? Kindle just had a percent which for me did not cut the mustard.

Thanks for listening, even at a heavy loss I think I am ready to move on to a different ereader ecosystem, any thought suggestions greatly appreciated.

btw amazon says there is no way of going back to the older firmware...
