You might not like that feature, but some of us would love it. Especially those of us who have mobility and dexterty issues.
If your issues don't allow you to page thru a paper book, I doubt the dexterity needed to constantly type on a tiny keyboard will be a better experience.

I think its just another way for BN to not stock paper books. It will be so easy to say......."well, we don't have that book it stock, but you can sure browse thru it on your device!", much like they love to tell you they don't have the book in stock but will be happy to order it for you.

If I want to do that, I'll stick to browsing thru my laptop, thank you.
