This is my first reader that uses epub. I got spoiled with Sony's LRF format. the way I understand it, LRF page numbers change with re-flow and font size changes. Epub retains page numbering even with a re-flow. The end result is I can turn four "pages" and still be on the same page in the epub file. Having the ability to go directly to a page could be problematic, depending on your font size.

You could always try the original case the nook shipped in. I guarantee nothing will protect it (or keep you away from it) better!
