More info:
Sending the device to sleep seems to clear the screen which is not necessary since the PB firmware takes care of these things, but it wakes up fine and on the right position. (UPDATE: Like the second point below this depends on how you open the book. With Koreader as application it behaves as it should => screensaver shows the book cover from Koreader), with "open with" the screen gets blanked and then the zzzz appears (no zzzz on application sleep).

There is a difference between opening a book through the PB library ("open with", not sure this exists on PB840 with firmware 5.4, it does NOT exist on PB Lux 2 with firmware 5.2, but it exists on 4.4) and opening Koreader itself and then opening a book.
Through PB the position of the book is not remembered, books start from the beginning.
Through Koreader itself (Filemanager) I need to press a button after "opening book" message (else the msg does not go away), but then the position is fine. Through PB I don't need to press the button, the book opens fine by itself.
