Yep, this is especially obvious for non-fiction, which is the sort of thing I'd be inclined to try an read on the Elipsa if I had one (read and add notes to non-fiction sounds quite useful).
Books with end-notes, extensive bibliographies and other back matter are all the sort of things l'm likely to want to switch around between several places. My Kobo will do back-and-forth between two places at a pinch ... as long as I don't want to skip off and look at something else briefly before coming back to where I was, in which case it all has to be set back up again.
