Thanks, Rob. I already use the Audible app and like it. Great timer feature.

It took forever to download books via wi-fi, but it worked. Audible was having server problems at the time, and I haven't tried loading via wi-fi since.

It won't let you load much over 3G (at least last I tried), so maybe buying on laptop and syncing through iTunes is the only way to work it right now anyway? Figured I'd ask. The only things I've been able to load via 3G are really short stories or samples.

I'm not clear why Flash would be needed to sample sound, but who knows. I notice that Audible often has server problems. Maybe their tech sucks?
