No, actually, the book has a TOC. It displays on my sisters keyboard kindle 3g, and NOT on my brand new paperwhite. Book was purchased from Amazon as we have both kindles on the same account.
So really there is no explanation other than Amazon decided to take it out of the paperwhite.

Page numbers may not mean much, they may be made up according to font, device, etc. But i would rather know what page I'm on, even if it's different accross devices.
Estimated time to finish is useless. It will change daily because of interruptions or how much you feel like reading, so I don't see how it's an accurate measure at all.

This close to giving away my paperwhite because of something so stupid- i hate companies that decide to take basic things away for no reason.
