Hi Holly, What a great idea. Thanks so much, I'm an Audible junky smile. I haven't experienced the same problem some on the list have but VoiceOver did crash completely when I tried to launch Audible the first time. I had to do a forced shut down and then reopen Safari Five. Thank you so much

Hi Erik, I used Emusic in the past, but it was on Windows. I unsubscribed because they got too expensive. Have you tried mp3 fiesta? I use them and Itunes exclusively for all my music needs. If you want to check them out, the link is: http://www.mp3fiesta.com I think they also have audio books

Hi. The iPhone OS, now just called iOS, uses a windowing toolkit that is based on Cocoa, but isn't the same. The class names are different, and parts of the classes themselves are different. Beyond that, the layout of the interfaces of an iOS application isn't very much like a desktop applicati

It's the strangest thing. I also couldn't find it in a search, so I googled it and found a direct link to it through a couple of reviews. The links brought up a message in the iTunes store saying the app is currently not available in the U.S. store. My uneducated guess is that the developer
