You know what you might want to do until we track down this power move =
problem is to set a bookmark where you start reading for the night.

Paul, this is so odd.  My sleep timer works without fail.  The only thing =
it
sometimes does not do is announce itself.  I mean, sometimes it just shuts
off without saying sleep timer has reached its setting or whatever the =
heck
it says.  In fact, I was teasing Larry a few weeks ago about my damsels
always being in distress when the thing goes off.  Yes, I know one can set
it to 0, but it is too valuable to do that for knowing me, I'd forget to
turn the silly thing back on at night.  It in combination with the power
move commands are wonderful for those of us who read ourselves to sleep.  =
It
shuts down and the power move helps me find where I was.  i start at night
by finding my place, then hearing the percentage where I am.  next day =
when
I want to read again, I check the percentage of where it stopped, and =
power
move on back to a bit forward from where I had been the day before.
