Yes. It's one of the main reasons I might never try another e-reader.
I've gotten so used to the 2400 characters a page I've set for Count Pages, that I can now instantly see how 'thick' an e-book is, and I can immediately estimate the time a book will take me to read.
2400 makes my e-books mostly ~10-15% 'thinner' than standard paperbacks, as Count Pages does obviously not take whitespace into account, while it would lower the average number of characters per page. If I had to do it again, I'd use 2200. Ah well, it would only make the books look thicker, and I'm now used to 2400, so I'll leave it at that
