I am glad to see I am not the only one that would like to see this feature in 
the Icon.  Maybe if there is more of us and we make enough noise, Levelstar and 
APH will listen.

Thanks,

Cory

  If you close the music player, but do not play any other sound file, you can 
select "Resume" from the options menu in the media player and it will pick up 
exactly where you left off.

  Not helpful if you want to be able to listen to more than one book or some 
music in the mean time.

   

  The only device I've found that is fabulous for remembering where you are in 
many sound files is the Book Port.

  Bookmarking in the music player would be a wonderful feature. My fiance reads 
a lot and I remember him telling me a lot that he can not close the music 
player because he has a book going and does not want to lose his place.

    In my opinion this is one of the most desirable features and one that I 
wish for the most without a doubt in any media player, especially portable 
ones.  Unfortunately it is all to hard to come by.  Currently on the device I 
am stuck with until I am able to get an Icon / Braille plus which is a main 
stream PDA running a screen reader solution, the screen reader inplemented this 
feature within windows media player, however although my device has the version 
of windows media player they say is required it strangely does not work.  Here 
is my point.  I asked them about it and they simply mentioned the necessity of 
the version of windows media player in question and after telling them I did 
have that they have ignored repeated solicitations to find out why it does not 
work on my device.  I do not have the latest version of windows mobile on my 
device and quite honestly the solution is not worth investing in that for.  The 
beauty of having it implemented on this device is that it would simply work and 
if it didn't there would be one straight forward path to finding out why.
