Frank, If I was to do this, I'd implement one of the Apple-like rolling-page graphic-bars (like the ones in the iTunes player?) that flips through the pages as you hover over it, showing the page numbers, or a thumbnail of the actual page. The distance from the centerline would determine the speed, with a page-indication on the right. If you have a ton of pages, it could flip through the chapters first, then after you click on one, it flips through the pages.
How's that?

In the app I'm currently writing the amount of pages can grow much larger than what I can display in the pagination widget and I don't like the usual design you find on web pages that just cut out a large junk of pages like this: 1|2|3|4|5|6....100|101|last So I'm curious if anybody has ever seen a pagination solution that looks nice, doesn't take up huge amounts of space and is functional in a way that any page can be quickly accessed?! I guess a drop down menu comes to mind but that's not very elegant. Anyway, before I start rambling on, anybody keen to explore/share design ideas here?
