Combine the two, and we have the painfully obvious solution: saving one's place - during shutdown, for example - so they can come back to it the moment they turn the thing back on.
Have you tried the "last read document" start-up option?

I was under the impression that both ipdf and MobiPocket Reader remember your last read page, and (unlike FBReader) this works no matter how you exit the program.

I use FBReader almost exclusively on my iLiad, so I explicitly exit FBReader before turning it off. This ensures that the last read page is up to date, although it is updated every 30 seconds (or how ever often you want) anyway.
