That would be cool.

possible, or you wouldn't have it enabled... :-)

Very good, yes. As a heavy audiobook listener, I can tell you it's
frustrating to accidentally stop instead of shutdown and find that I've lost
my place in a 6 hour file!

Perhaps now with writing available an auto-bookmark function could be
enabled. I envision being able to stop listening at some point in a track,
go off and listen to music or another book and when that track is played
again, the position will be remembered. This is the way Audible audiobooks
work on many of the supported players, like my Rio 600. Would this be easy
to implement?
