Did you not just tell me that it depended on the format of the book downloaded by the device? it is then up to the firmware to display that information, not the publisher.
I work in engineering and coincidentally I work with the Amazon cloud..they are restrictive and love to play god with their information.

The publisher is obviously sending Amazon the correct information- page numbers and TOCs are present as exhibited by the fact it is displaying on a Kindle 3 3G and not displaying on the Kindle Paperwhite.
You are saying it's because of the format of the book that the device is downloading, that is sent by the publisher. This doesn't make sense, why would the publisher send two different formats without basic information?
I don't think that that a one year old Kindle 3G is downloading books from Amazon that has limited information , in any case it's a moot point. Because the OLDER device, ie my sisters' kindle is displaying page numbers AND TOC.

The new PW isn't. This is all firmware related.

Also not sure why on this forum people defend Amazon.. I keep forgetting, am I on an Amazon forum?
