So I have both books loaded onto to my Kindle 3 and my iPhone.

If reading on the Kindle
Before stopping turn on wireless and ?????? Everytime I do a synch to furthest page it says "Already at furthest read location". So does this mean that I should just turn the wireless on and let it do it's thing?

If reading on iPhone app
Read and then when done do I hit the icon to synch?

Sorry to sound so stupid, I was so fixated on getting this to work, I don't think I had a good understanding of HOW it works.

I want to know what exactly should I do when I am done reading on either device to ensure that both stay in synch. Thanks!
On your kindle when you are done reading (make sure wireless is on and connected) just hit the home key to exit the book. That will update the furthest read location on the amazon servers. The same goes for the iPhone hit the home key to exit the book once done reading, I am not sure if it is 100% necessary but I then hit the sync icon in the iPhone to ensure that it updates the furthest read location.
