I find it as reliable as human error will allow! :-) It can take a while 
though. If I'm listening to a particularly long file, I'll stop 
listening periodically to save a bookmark. This comes in handy when the

lose my place when the battery dies. BTW, I don't think there are any 
visual queues since there's no display.
