Might this be related to the issue that some people have with losing bookmarks, I wonder? A dodgy SD card? Corrupted file system?
This is certainly an excellent question. I've had my Cybook for a few weeks now and it "lost my place" when I turned in on quite frequently. As a matter of fact, I had this problem the very first day I started reading on the Cybook. At the time I was copying books directly to the Cybook's memory (I have a Mac so no syncing for me). Now I copy books directly to an SD card using a card reader. I haven't had any problems since I started doing that. And it is related to the bookmark problem in some way because I decided to start bookmarking my place before I turned off the Cybook and discovered that the bookmarks didn't work all the time either. When I couldn't make a bookmark was when the Cybook would lose my place.
