I understand the progress thing. Makes perfect sense to me. Or, X minutes remaining in this book. What I don't get is the page numbers thing, versus Locations, or the "page numbers" created, on the fly, by other devices, that are just as fake as Location numbers. That's kind of my question. Is it because they are called "pages?"

I like ADE style page numbers because they work. They are the same regardless of font size, line hight & margins. You make a change to any of those and the page numbers stay the same. It's also the same regardless of screen size. ADE page numbers are even the same across different devices. So IMHO, ADe page numbers are the best page numbers for eBooks. Oh and they do not require an extra file (aka Kindle).
