That can be a drag, since audiobooks are such file hogs. Have you considered loading just a few (for emergencies) and then doing the bulk of your audiobooks on an MP3 player?

I'm a big fan of audiobooks and use a very small 4GB Sansa Clip+ that goes with me everywhere. It's currently on sale at RadioShack for $30 (retail $50) and includes support for MP3, WMA, secure WMA, Audible, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, FM radio, podcasts, audiobooks, Rhapsody, voice & FM recorder, and has a microSD card slot. Highly rated, it's my primary device for music and audiobooks. I definitely recommend it.

Something to consider, is that most ereaders don't support WMA and the majority of audiobooks from the library are WMA. Many MP3 players will cover the three main audiobook formats - MP3, WMA, Audible.
