But it takes time for Amazon to realize you've changed places in a book, and you have to have Whispernet turned on, and it has to be an Amazon book. The quick-and-dirty method of synching would be to just transfer the .mbp file for the book from one Kindle to another using a computer and the USB cords. (Note that this probably won't work for an iPhone/iPod Kindle app; people apparently have much less access to their files from these.)
Don't really need that.

The iPhone/iPod Kindle app it quite good about checking for sync. Does it every time a book is opened. The only thing that gets in the way is if you are in the habit of extending you battery life by keeping the modems turned off.

EDIT: I was really quite surprised, after downloading a previously purchased book, to find my iPod Touch asking if I wanted to go to the last page read from my K1. I just didn't expect it.
