I prefer page numbers on Kindle books. I find that even after using Amazon/Kindle for some years now and thinking I'd become accustomed to it, that 'location' or whatever it is still just doesn't mean anything to me. I also like the 'reading time' left and percentage.
What I would really like though is a one-click/one-swipe solution to quickly look at that information. I've found I just really don't like having any of that info normally showing while reading because I tend to have to glance at it every page. The 'swipe to change what info's showing on bottom' feature on the Voyage just does not work properly at all, and even if it did you'd need about four or five swipes to see the info you want to see then turn it back off. So I now use the method of tapping on top to bring up the menu, tapping to bring up formatting, tapping to bring up reading progress, tapping to show the info I want, tapping to turn the info back off and finally tapping to make it all go away. Yes, I've found that's easier and quicker than sometimes-it-works, sometimes-it-won't swiping the bottom on the Voyage. So my #1 minor improvement would be a section of the screen I could just tap to bring up all relevant info (percentage, page number, time left, even location, chapter, etc.), and then tap again to make it all go away or even not have to tap again but it will just go away automatically once I turn the page.
