BTW, Kindle supports my 32GB SD card (Kingston, bought from Amazon) with no problem. The user guide says up to 4GB, but as many now know, it supports SDHC - no matter the size. I had a 16GB card before this one and it also worked fine. The 16GB cards have dropped in price to around $40. The 32GB cards are still pretty pricey, but I love having loads of audio content along with everything else on my Kindle. And yes, if you had only books on the 32GB card - that's about <B>32,000</B> 600 page books.<BR/><BR/>I LOVE my Kindle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338977976954280982.post-29917102607821856732008-11-09T15:22:00.000-05:002008-11-09T15:22:00.000-05:00I've also found that placing MP3 files in the Audi...I've also found that placing MP3 files in the Audible subdirectory rather than music gives you the ability to pick the file and forward/reverse 30 seconds similar to the audible books.

In fact, on my equipment (and on the Kindle) I noticed no audio difference between the files, but level 3 files are half the size of 4. Level 2 files begin to sound a little tinny and I didn't even try Level 1.<BR/><BR/>The files are still comparatively huge, but because some audio books are in multiple files, at least you'll be able to carry an entire book, if not 2 or more, on an SD card.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
