The way bookmarking works on the iPhone might be a little tricky to get a hang of without guidance. If you're INSIDE of a task, or project, or folder, or anything, THAT's when you can bookmark it. So if you were to hit the right tab of a task with children to go into it, while in that view, bookmarking a task bookmark's the task you're in. Does that make sense?
It's easier on the iPad, you simply select it and hit bookmark. That manner of viewing and manipulation is coming to the iPhone, but for now, that should let you bookmark!
