Thanks for clarifying that. I do listen to a lot of audiobooks myself and have a Sansa clip currently, which I love. My son has an iPod Nano he uses for audiobooks. We get most of our audiobooks either from Audible, Overdrive, netlibrary or ripped from CDs so all but the Audible are in mp3 format. I was just thinking having both the audio and text on one device might be less for him to keep up with on vacation, etc. At home he could still use both devices.
As far as Librivox, I've listened to a lot of their books with mixed results. They are all narrated by volunteers, and sometimes several different people do one book, b/c they work by chapters. So it can be hit or miss; you get some great readers and some not-so-great. But it's free, so you aren't losing anything by trying them. It's only books in the public domain, like project Gutenberg, but I read a lot of classics anyway so it's good for me.
