Interesting. I've never found much of close correlation between the page numbers in a pbook and ebook edition of the same book unless the creator has deliberately added the information and you happen to have the edition of the pbook those numbers came from. This applies to Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Tolino and Pocketbook ereaders that I've played with. The best I've found is using % so 10% into the ebook is around 73 pages into a 732 page pbook.
Heck, even a pbook will change the page numbering between the various formats (hardcover, trade paperback, paperback). I also have one textbook where the reprint of the 4 edition was re-typeset and ended up 10 pages shorter that the original 4th edition.
