Of the choices there are for indicating progress, it's the one I prefer most of the time. I'm not that concerned about how accurate it is; it gives good idea of how long a chapter is.
My personal preference is pages in book/pages in chapter. Reading times on a Kindle, Kobo, Tolino or Pocketbook ereader does not seem to like my reading speed. As an example, when I get to the 45% point in a book after 40 minutes of reading and I am told it's going to take 2.6 hours to finish the book and 11 minutes to finish the chapter, you get rather dubious about the usefulness of the times shown.
