Prior to firmware 2.0, there was a bug on Windows iPods which made 
them to loose audible bookmarks after a reset (this includes plugging and 
unplugging to a computer). It's not an EphPod bug, it's an iPod bug.

I don't know how's the situation with 2.0, but from what you say, it might 
be that the bug is still there. To make sure, plug the iPod to the PC, wait 
for it to be mounted, then don't launch EphPod at all, simply eject and 
unplug it. Check your audible bookmarks. If they are gone, then it's the 
firmware. If they're there, then it's EphPod's fault.

Oh, and I guess you mean EphPod 2.70, as this is the latest version 
(check Help -> About).
