I know how you feel because I have a 35 minute drive to work every day.

Outside of my learning to play the Native American Flute (which I freely admit I have pulled out at red lights) Audiobooks are what get me to and from work.

Sometimes it seems like I just left the house and BAM–I’m at work already. :(

I listen to audiobooks on SD cards, using an inexpensive MP3 player. Then, when I get in the car, I have a MP3 player that fits in the cigarette lighter and plays through the FM radio. I just pull the card out of one and put it in the other. By the way, I never lose my place.

Way cool and EZ to use.

We started putting audiobooks on SD cards because we enjoy them so much and I was fast becoming a danger to others on the road when I was driving. You know, changing the CD’s right at the peak of a book. DARE THEY!!! They always seem to know where to stop a CD, don’t they?

It took us a while but we came up with a solution to the whole bookmarking issue. Not an issue anymore.

Now putting books on SD cards is a fairly new concept, but well received by those who have tried them.

What we do really is for the people that enjoy audio books but are not technically savvy, or do not know how to unzip files, download etc. People like me…..I just want to put the book in and listen to it.

note: No more flute playing in the car :)
