I was surprised by their common complaint that the Kindle doesn't have page numbers! What were they thinking to leave out that feature?! It cripples the usefulness of the device for heavy reading over longer time spans.
- newhouseb 17y agoThey don't have page numbers per se, but they do have page ranges. Because you can change the text size, actual page numbers themselves completely change. The numbering system that the Kindle uses is based, from what I can tell, on words/sentences/paragraphs. It took me ages to figure out that "1237-48" meant "From 1237 to 1248" and not something like "1237.48". It's horribly communicated, but it makes sense when you figure it out.
