And (2) the only other thing I use page numbers for is to get an idea of how long the book is. But I change font size depending how much light I have to read by, and how tired I am, so that number isn't terribly meaningful. I think Kindle's system is probably better.
Does the Kindle 1 use this "locator" thing? And does anyone know if the locator value has any meaning? Is it a string of random numbers/letters, or do they increase sequentially as you move through he book?

The locations progress linearly as you progress through a book, starting at 1 and ending wherever...
