If the cybook re sets, or for some reason you lose your place, have you tried to find your place again using the progress bar. Fat chance. You can get a lot closer with page numbers.
I tend to lose my place where I have not left a book mark. My first book reader was a WinCE device back in early 2000.
There were many software readers at the time, but from day one, I liked mobi, but even then mobi were slow to respond to customers.
Compaq Aero, Palm 105, Sony Clie, Toshiba e400 and last but not least a zodiac. Now my cybook and treo phone.

Yes, Mobipocket does sort of have page numbers. But the page numbers are buggy. Mobipocket has never bothered to fix this. All versions have the same page number bug and seems like they always will. You can use the goto page feature on the Gen3, but there is no grantee that the page you end up at is the page you went to last time you tried to go to that same page number. This is not Bookeen's fault. The fault lies with Mobipocket.
