I'm guessing you have an old model of Kindle? My Nook takes less time on average to switch pages than I do to turn a physical page and scan to the beginning of the text.
Nope, the latest one. Against print, it's a wash for going sequentially from one page to the next.. but I also need to flick through many pages a second to scan or just get a feel for a book, and 1 page per second or two doesn't provide that.
I also frequently have multiple books open and jump between them scanning a lot as I do a lot of research. Again, not ideal for things like the Kindle, alas. But that's why I think we need both e-books and print.
