But if I'm doing that something that will make me loose my place, I don't know what page I need to get back to to return to where I was. That would be kind of annoying. Also, the more books you have, the harder it will be to get close to the page you want when moving the scroll bar.

As I pointed out before, however, there is no need for this current situation... the new layout has a big blank space just begging to be filled with a page number, and everyone can be happy.
the point you make isn't a nitpick it's a simple fact there is no way of knowing exactly what page your on. it's that blatantly obvious it shouldn't need to be pointed out.

edit. i've just found out while using the UI that if you keep your finger on the slider/scrollbar without letting go and move up or down it will show the page number you are on, but when you take your finger off the screen it disappears. which means it doesn't show you what page you are on without having to keep your finger constantly on the screen.
