Programs exist for taking dictation and turning it into written notes, though I don't know any good way to tag those notes to the corresponding part of the audiobook.

There are products such as Livescribe which are designed to "remember" what parts of an audio recording (aimed at lectures, but should work for audiobooks if the pen could hear the book too) any given written note correspond to. I'm not sure if that's more practical than simply writing the section of the book (or elapsed time of the audio file) in the margin of the note, but it's an option.
