That's gonna be really frustrating if all you can do is skip hundreds of chapters, chapter by chapter, until you hope to find page 300. You may try the table of contents but that wont work either because it doesnt show the page numbers, only chapter names.
unless im missing something obvious there is a big deal of limitation here
By the way, you say I have the option of using the epub, but thats an option quite limited since I dont have reading statistics and then i dont feel im getting the full immersive reading experience that made me buy a kobo glo , im losing something either way.

I agree with you that's not always the best thing
And if I had to find page 240 I would be at a loss. On the other hand, if I have to find something half-way chapter 8, the kepub behaviour would be easier.
Since the estimated time isn't important, an epub has also some statistics in Reading life, like the time read (per session or total, not sure) and the number of page turns
Right now, the way the page numbers are displayed is how I decide between a kepub and an epub for each book (different books, different needs).
