Kobo Readers have both percentage and Adobe style page numbers so you have two ways of knowing how far into the eBook you are and how much left you have.

But, in another thread on bonus material, you might not know how much you have to go because if you have an excerpt (usually incorrectly called bonus material in an eBook) from another of the author's books, then your percent and page count cannot tell you when you get near the end as the end is farther along then the actual end.
