Hi Brian,
Fortunately, it is completely wrong. The Audible player for the N91 does
keep your place. It does for me anyway. Music and Podcasts don't but the
Audible player does not use the music player directly, it has its own
interface.
All the best

Does the N91 keep your place in an Audible file?
I did not think it had the ability to retain position. So if you switch the
phone off, or move to another file, your place will not be retained. Is
that right?
I like the text to speech capabilities though and the obvious advantages
that brings.
