Lee, my jetBook Lite has at the top a running counter of the percentage of the book (to the second decimal point!) I have read. I'm sure that without that I would not enjoy the eBook as much.
I think this is related to a sense of accomplishment, akin to checking off something on a checklist.
Perhaps this desire to complete a task is counter to what authors have in mind, but for me it is real nonetheless.
