John - sorry for the delay in responding - forgot to turn on email notification :(

Audible is definitely more "familiar" with GSM phones - Tmo and ATT - for Sprint, you can't follow their instructions for entering an APN.

My set-up is:

TCP - apn fileds all blank
Browser - both default and MDS browsers set to internet

I got overly excited because my .aa files played flawlessly ... OTA downloads are not working for me. While I can connect and see my library files, even update the lists, I've not been successful downloading files (even in small chunks).

I'll have to work with Audible tech support on this one.

This has been a bit of a "quest" for me lately ... here's what else I've learned:

1. Audiobay is very problematic for me on my 8830 despite a dozen+ emails with the developer. I'll be returning it to Handingo (slow and spotty downloads, doesn't allow authentication for protected casts)

2. NewsGator GO - great for text RSS feeds, podcasts show up but aren't downloadable (unsupported application type)

3. VoiceIndigo - using the java version from the web page - this has the most potential so far. They do a great job compressing files (i.e. some of my casts that are normally 16Mb+ are scrunched to under 5Mb). They also can chunk them into "chapters" to get under the 5Mb limit (not sure if that's a BB limit or my BES imposing a limit). And they also support authentication. On the down side, it's a lot of work to hunt down the right episode and specify the location (each time).

I just finished setting up my other half's new Mogul and am GREEN with envy - HubDog, SmartRSS, AudioBay (works well on PPC)- all work flawlessly and can be set to run automatically on a schedule.


BLACKBERRY DEVELOPERS - ANYONE UP TO THE CHALLENGE???
