I don't know what the Kindle TOC "used to be like" - could you describe what functionality you think is missing?

The Nook does have TOC functionality, I'm just trying to find out what you're looking for.

While most books don't use page numbers that correspond to the print editions, the numbers it uses instead of locations are much more reasonable (your typical novel will be out of 300-400, not out of 10000).

It depends on what you mean by "flip through". There's page forward/back buttons on both sides of the screen. And you can also bring up a slider to drag through the book, but it doesn't show you the pages as you do that.

It shows you page # out of the total # of pages, and if you bring up the TOC it will highlight the current chapter. What more are you looking for?
