The short answer is yes. I have had three of these. I loved them for audio books. The first one lasted five years, the second one three. I bought two additional as gifts over seven years ago. One is still working. The last one I bought from a third party vendor in July 2013 and by October 2013 it was dead. The problem is, it's an old model, not supported, with no access to the battery. When it dies no one take responsibility, it's past the 30 day return time. So I spent $300 for three months use. I wish Creative would go back to players with bookmarking capability.

One can do so easily. In addition, when you turn it off, it will resume where you left off.

With the proper application yes. As there are many providers of audio-books you would have to download the correct app to view them.

Well, I couldn't get my money refunded through Amazon, so I returned the broken Zen Micro to Creative. They had the nerve to send me a refurbished Zen V Plus instead of repairing the Micro. I've now filed a complaint with the BBB. Meanwhile I bought a Sansa e250. It doesn't have bookmarking, but so far I'm very happy with it. Of course, it's only been a few days. There's been no reason to reset it or remove the battery or go looking for solutions to strange problems, all of which I had to do within a few days of receiving my original Zen V.

Amanda-Since you already have it, can you tell me if it has bookmarking capabilities? I will be using it mostly for audiobooks.

Sorry, but I can't answer that question. I have only used the player to listen to the existing books. I am aware you can add audio books and music but not how to do it. I asked the manufactures of this product several questions and one if them was "Can I add books and Music and delete existing ones and they said YES!. I have not yet pursued that but I did find the people at Library of Classics to be very helpful on 3 occasions that I spoke with them. I suggest you contact them by way of email at--- info@libraryoftheclassics.com for the answer to your question. They are most friendly and easy to correspond with via email.

You can program the audio book to go forward or backward in chapter mode or you can turn that off and go forward or backward as you wish. Most books are downloaded in segments so it is easy to start any where you want. Hope this helped.

I've had mine for a couple weeks, listening primarily to Audible.com books. So far, it's been the best I've found (aside from an iPod) with resume (interestingly, if the sleep timer shuts off the system, when you turn it back on, you don't need to hit play: it just starts playing where it left off). I haven't tried with any books using a DRM system yet, though.

Yes, it's just the disc. Just press pause instead of stop or use the "Bookmark" feature.

I have never used bookmarks, but if you pose your question to Cowon website they will get back to you eventually with the answer. Good Luck.

This is a very simple player with the exception of having Bluerooth. No it does not bookmark. Nor does it seem to have the ability to advance through an audio piece.

I would love to be able to change pages with the volume control. What's the name of this reader?

I finally purchased with cowon d2 and am very happy. I listen to audiobooks on it and it can bookmark, but play the next track after the bookmarked track (extremely important). I had the creative zen for awhile and returned it as it didn't have as many features as the d2. If you have any questions about the d2, please feel free to ask.

Sorry. I was never able to get it to do much, but I'm sure it would do books. I love their older MP3 players. Especially the Creative Zen.

I noticed in a review that it does have a bookmark feature on audio books if you exit directly to the main menu. It didn't say how to do that, but I assume it would be pressing the little button above the wheel. When you exit to the menu, it will ask you if you wish to bookmark.

Yes, I use my shuffle only for audiobooks which I get from the library or Audible.com. First, Connect Shuffle. Then, 1) download book to OverDrive Media Console. 2) Open Finder, book chapters should appear in Finder. 3) Open iTunes: click on File on task bar; click/open "Add to Library" in drop down dialog box. 4) Go back to Finder and highlight book/chapters in Finder. 5)drag chapters to music under devices in "Add to Library" dialog box. 6) Click "open" at bottom of screen. 7) Click "sync" at bottom of screen. Hope this helps. I think I got the steps in order. Seems confusing at first, but after you do it a few times it's easy. Enjoy listening.
