I know this is not what you want to hear, but to those of you who enjoy listening to audiobooks, I heartily suggest to do it with a standard mp3-player: they've gotten extremely cheap and rugged these days(unlike ebook readers), and almost all of them come with a bookmark function.
As for reading some parts on the ereader then continuing on the mp3player(say you hop into your car), and maybe then back to the ebook in the evening, yes you do have to muanually sync to where you've gotten to if you use two different devices(no magic immersion-whispersyncing-all-the-things spell), but with ebooks chapter-skip functions and audiobooks split in properly numbered/named chapters, it's almost always a non-issue and takes very little time(especially if you happen to stop at chapter breaks).
Do try it, before deciding to get an ebook reader which, say, might have audio functionality but is a bit lacking on the latest cool features (like an old kindle vs a paperwhite one).
just my 2 cents
