AudioBook Chapters - Skip to next chapter?

On my iPhone, with an audio book, if I hit the >>| button to fast forward, it jumps ahead to the next chapter.

In iTunes, if I hit the >> button on the same audio books, it jumps ahead to the next audio book.

I know there's a Chapter selector on the menu bar, but I want to just hit the fast forward and jump to the next chapter. is this configurable? What am I missing?

Mac Pro Quad 11gb, dual 23" Cinema Display, Mac OS X (10.5.2), MacBook Pro 15" 60gb Video iPod 16&8gb iPhone

I should have thought to look for a keyboard shortcut; OS X is all about the keyboard shortcuts, after all. 😉

A GUI solution to this would be nice, Apple. I think I'll suggest it as a product enhancement.

Thanks.

I agree its annoying that the forward and backward buttons do not skip chapters in iTunes. You can, however, use the keyboard shortcuts when listening to an audiobook with chapters: apple-shift-right arrow and apple-shift-left arrow.
