Thanks, Harry. Makes sense. Would be nice if it worked on my supposedly unlimited 3G data plan.
I tried downloading (on wi-fi) a book that's nearly 400MB and it timed out at 199MB, and wouldn't resume. I wonder whether Audible is having problems. I now remember that its downloads have been slow for me on both sides of the U.S., on at least three connections. Reminds me of dial-up, lol. Oh well, I'll try some other time.
