I loaded the IPhone Kindle application on my ITouch. I think it provides a great alternative when my Kindle is not available. However, I have noticed that sometimes the Touch does not sync to the latest page read on the Kindle. It appears to be going through the process, but does not move forward to the last page read. When I attempt to manually sync it comes back that I am already at the last page read. Note: I am connected to the internet via wireless. Anyone else experienced this problem, perhaps I am doing something wrong. Thanks Jerry

I put the question to Amazon support, I will post their reply. Jerry

When I try the sync ICON it tells me I am already at the furthest page read even though I am farther ahead on my kindle 1.

To get my ITouch to sync to the last page read on my kindle I must go to the Home menu on the Kindle 1 and select "Sync & Check for Items". Then on the ITouch, I select the sync ICON and it now asks if I want to go the latest location read on the kindle. This works, but is not automatic as described by Amazon.

Below is the response I received from Amazon Customer support on synchronizing between multiple devices. I have had success by going to the home screen on the kindle when I am done reading. Jerry 

Hello from Amazon.com.

When you open a Kindle book you are also reading on another device, you are given the choice to go to the furthest page read if you are further ahead on the other device. If the other device has not synchronized recently i.e. your kindle has not been returned to the home screen or put to sleep this feature my not work properly. When you are done reading on the Kindle you need to either let the device go to sleep or return it to the home page once you have left the book the Kindle saves your place and syncs this to your amazon account this ensures that you can easily pick up where you left off regardless of which device you are using.
