I have a number of audible books. You can purchase any one individually without any kind of plan or subscription and recently I have found several I wanted on sale from $6-$11. It works perfectly now but I had a tough time setting it up and eventually found an easier way to get a file on the PPC than their plan which is to go to SEARCH - find the file after it is downloaded to the computer and drag and drop it to "pocket pc" which is a subheading of "mobile device" which in turn is a subheading of "My Computer" in the START menu.
I have successfuly transferred AUDIBLE and "My Library" to other computers and handhelds. I believe there is some limit like 5 devices. When you access Audible on yhour pda you can start out where you left off last time. Also, clicking on "file" lets you "select programs" so you can listen to any other book that is on your memory card(which is really necessary for such large files).
