One of the obscure things I like better about ebooks (or ereaders, I guess) is that I can turn off any and all progress indicators. Feeling/seeing how close I am to the end of a book is actually a bit of a spoiler for me. There are easy assumptions about the outcome of plot threads I can make when I know I'm near the end that I can't make when I don't. Not knowing my position in a book/chapter is an ignorant bliss I've come to cherish quite a lot.
