Advantages of a Kindle over the app on an ipad

I’ve got a kindle app which I am starting to use but wonder if a dedicated kindle player has any advantages.
I get a bit frustrated that whatever I’m reading goes back to the beginning whenever I turn the pad off and I have to remember to mark my page with a bookmark to ever find where I’d read to. (Or am I just being a numpty!)

question: why can’t I buy books for the Kindle on the ipad? they have to be purchased via the Kindle itself but then happily appear on the ipad too. Or is it me?!

I can’t buy them via the Amazon app, but if I type Amazon into the address bar and go to the website, then type in the name of the book I want I can just buy on one click and say to which device I want it delivered.
