There's a difference between keeping track _as you read_ and placing a 
marker _when you stop reading_. You may not agree, but the facts are the 
facts.

I do know the key I pressed and I have read the manual, I accidentally held
down the 2 key for too long.  As for the book port constantly keeping track
of where it is I would assume it does that anyway because it can resume from
where it left off.  I appreciate the bookport doesn't have huge processing
power but I am sure the position could be stored in say a couple of bytes,
It must have pointers to where it is in a file or how does it function?  I
am sorry but I don't agree that it would introduce a huge processing
overhead, I remember the days when people wrote quite complex programs on 8
bit home computers with small amounts of memory.  I was just putting it
forward as an idea as on my plextalk talking book machine I find undo useful
at times.
