Yes, that's a feature I miss most when I'm reading a pbook.
And how do I feel? I always get pain in my hands because I have to keep the book open. Or I'm turning and turning and again turning in bed because I want to read the other page... I find it inconvenient, as I need the bedlight on, instead of using the backlight on my reader. And I can't really curl around my book, as I will block the bedlight.
Having said that, I will not get rid of my pbook collection, far from it. But for general reading I'll use my reader.
