yep that's pretty much it. Though if I were using my reader to read e-journals and periodicals I can see why the page numbers may be important...however I'm reading fiction on my ebook device and do not need to cite anything from my device.

Basically, what they need to do is give the readers options. Someday people will be using these devices to read journal articles and etc...and they will need an accurate way to cite. There has to be a way to let the user choose the method that works best for them.

and also, the page numbers should never be in the middle of hte page...
