Just press and hold Forward or Back key (right/left of 4Way-Wheel). The function works well for medium-sized files and acceptably for large ones.
Generally, the Fuze is one of the players best suited for audiobook-centric use I ever found, and I did search for a while.
E.g. if while playing an episode you accidentially press the Forward key for a short moment, the player skips to the next file
(as it should, assuming the keypress was on intent), but if you then press Back, it doesn’t start your previous file anew but continues exactly where you interrupted it. Same exact resume behaviour on power-off, even for large files; also there is a sleep mode programmable in 10min steps if you like to fall asleep while listening. (The last one is a bit deep down in the menu tree but nevertheless.)
Most devices are sold with an older firmware that lacks folder navigation, so make sure to update to the latest firmware right after purchasing. Updating is very easy and seems to be quite low-risk (you rarely hear about bricked devices).
