As far as the Book Port not reporting correct page numbers, that was
reported last week and is being looked into and will be corrected in a
future update.
You don't have as much navigational options with Audible books, because
they are not marked up. The only thing you can do is move by phrase, or
use the Audio Seek feature, if you want to move by time.

Hi All,
I'm a fairly new Book Port user, so forgive if this question seems
foolish.
FOolish or not, I would definitely appreciate some help!
I can't seem to find a reliable way of either figuring out my place or
moving to another within an Audible.com book. Yes, the next subsection
command sometimes moves me to another chapter or back, and yes, I can
set a
zillion bookmarks and locate places that way, but I can't imagine that
there
isn't more location information available than that! When I try "go to
page" no matter what number I press, it starts reading at exactly the
same
spot where I left off. Last night, for example, Book Port said I was
on
page 302 of a book. I tried going to 305, 336, 355, 201 (you get the
picture), but every time, once I pressed the pound to return reading, I
was
at the same spot. Then, I got the "replace battery" message, so I
thought
perhaps that was the problem. Nope. After replacing the batteries, no
matter where I checked, BOok Port told me I was on page 72 -- whether I
was
really at beginning, middle or end of file, it said page 72. What is
wrong
with my Book Port or its user?
Thanks,
Deborah
