See the other David's post. It is on the library lists of the AuraHD. Not the Touch or any other part the viewer. Something about pressing whatever text is in italics in the "page x of y" display.

Personally I don't find the page slider very useful. It's too insensitive to get to a specific point in the book, and I can't think of any occasion on which I have wanted to go to a non-specific point (normally +/- 20 pages from the nominal position I am trying to drag the slider to). A specific page number entry would be much more useful. Normally I want this feature because a glitch in the book or an accidental touch has skipped 20-30 pages and I need to go back to the specific page I was reading.
I agree that it is not very good for a large number of pages. But, I like the visual aspects of how it shows where I am. Plus tapping the arrow at either end for paging through the list. But, it isn't great for getting to an exact page. And yes, I would like the function.
