I need a mp3 for audio books

Gettin_me_own_back

Hi
I need to buy tommorrow an mp3 player to use with an audio book.
The only feature I need is the ability to stop the book and return to the same spot a while later when I return to my sunbed with a beer, after a dip in the pool. I cant buy online as I do not have enough time.
Do all mp3 have this facility
regards

I'm afraid it's a case of 'suck it and see'. Most audio books are split into quite small chapters so it's pretty easy to get back to your place.

Thanks for that never used an audio book before so do not know format etc.

Ahh, I see what you mean. Sorry to go all big brands and the like. but I know for a fact you can set tracks in itunes to audiobooks and choose to set it to remember where you left off. the only players campatible with itune of course are the ipods. Mind you the old shuffles are comming down nicely these days. You could always go for the audible freebie of a shuffle with a years subs of 9.99 a month.
