Advice about Reading and Listening

Hi folks!

I'm hoping to gather some suggestions about how best to switch back and forth between ebooks and audiobooks.

I find that I really like the Kindle/Audible marriage, which lets me listen to a book in my car, and then continue reading it at night, when I get home. HOWEVER, I get most of my books from the library-- buying the ebook and the audiobook is not a feasible for me, financially, at least not on a regular basis. Also, it turns out to my delight that almost all the books I want are available in both formats from my library. The only trouble I am having is that finding my location is a little bit tricky. Sadly, most audiobooks don't give chapter marks.

I read about the new software that will create a sync map for you, but that's way more time than I want to spend on this. At the moment I'm thinking I will just have to set bookmarks in my car, and try to fast forward, to see if I can catch up by hunting.

Any simple, geeky suggestions that I'm missing here?
