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 battery runs down. I'll also try to recharge frequently so as not to lose my place when the battery dies. BTW, I don't think there are any visual queues since there's no display.
