You’ll never lose your place

iPod.

iPod lets you easily navigate through spoken content, and when you sync Audible back and forth between your computer and iPod, each will keep track of where you last left off listening — just like a virtual bookmark.

Missed the fourth book in the celebrated Hitchhikers’ Guide series by Douglas Adams (So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish)? You can download it from Audible. Ditto with Margaret Atwood’s The Blind Assassin. Fact is, whether your taste in writers runs to cerebral stylists like Martin Amis (London Fields) or suspense writers like Robert Ludlum (The Bourne Identity), Audible has books for you.

Getting started on a Mac

It’s easy to get up and running with Audible. Start by preparing iTunes to receive Internet files. To do that, quit your browser and email applications. Select Preferences in the iTunes menu. Click on the General icon, and then the Set button labeled Use iTunes for Internet Music Playback. Click OK to both dialog boxes that come up, and that’s it. Your Mac is now all set to surf and download content from Audible.com — and play it using iTunes on your iPod.

Getting started on a Windows PC

To transfer your Audible content from your Windows PC to your iPod, you will need to have the latest version of the iPod Software and then download and install the AudibleManager from Audible.com.

Speaking of classics

iPod lets you do your commuting in the company of the immortals. Lots of cars on the road? Not a problem: At 60 hours, 55 minutes, Tolstoy’s War and Peace is guaranteed to last you through the heaviest traffic jams. We recommend saving Anna Karenina (34 hours, 33 minutes) for shorter trips.

*Syncing with USB 2.0 (Windows-only) requires optional USB 2.0 + FireWire Cable.
