Hi all,

I know I said all my audible problems were solved, and yes they are, in 
that,  I can play audible content on my PC.

However, playing the content on my PC is Ok if I am listening while working 
on something else, but sitting say for four hours in front of my PC to 
listen to a book, seems too long, and anyway I don't think my soundcard can 
easily cope with Jaws running through it at the same time as other audio, 
even though the machine is running windows XP.

My questions are basically the following:

1.  , does anyone know if the milestone player from the RNIB will play 
audible content.

2.  If the answer to question 1 is no then should I consider a book courier 
or is there another similar model of accessible MP3 player that will play 
audible content that I should consider, preferably one that is less of a 
price than the milestone?

Thank you in advance for any answers to the above questions.
