I'm wondering which player is the most user friendly. This is what I want it to do:
If I switch from listening to a book, to listening to music, I want to be able to switch back to my book where I left off.

What players out there will allow me to do this?

Thanks.

The Sansa Clip and Fuse have automatic bookmarking for audiobooks.

I realize the Fuze will do that, I have one. But is that the best there is?

Most Creative players will allow you to bookmark and return to a specific place in any audio track, although you have to manually set the bookmark before changing tracks.

Ditto the TrekStor vibez. The vibez bookmarking stores the entire running playlist and your exact location within it. I don't use audiobooks myself, but I imagine this would be helpful if the chapters are broken up into individual tracks.

One downside to the vibez: no support for Audible format.

How about the Cowan D2, will this do what I want?

Is the Vibes F even out yet?

With the D2 you can manually add multiple bookmarks. It will remember your position in the last file you were playing (if you turn on the resume option). It doesn't automatically bookmark where you stopped.

Nope. Personally I'm hoping the finally release the damn thing at this year's IFA. It was at IFA 2007 that they announced they were going to have a flash vibez. I imagine a year should be plenty of time to make it happen, especially with all the truly fantastic firmware improvements they've made over the past 10 months.

Here's hoping.

Thanks that's what I wanted to know.
