I prefer the Ambling Audiobook player. Two features that I haven't found in the other players I tried are:

1. When you begin playback on a book you have already begun, it automatically backs up ~30 seconds from where audio stopped. This helps me a lot in remembering where I am in a book.

2. Shake to restart sleep timer. When I am having trouble sleeping, I set the shutoff timer for 10 minutes. If I haven't fallen asleep by then, when the chime sounds I can just shake the iPhone to reset the timer for another 10 minutes.
