Actually, I think it makes a lot of sense to have a USB port in the compartment of the center console. You can connect a device such as an MP3 or other player which can be kept in the console, and then controlled by the car’s radio. Much better than plugging the MP3 player into the car radio itself and having the wire and the player in the way. I think this is well thought out.

She might have Bluetooth but as she parks about a 1klm away from work so she can get exercise walking to work I can’t really check her car.

A lot more books on the phone and less cd’s in the car.

So the play time is definitely more then 80minutes. I know the CD player in her car can play MP3 format. In fact the CD I burned the other day equates to about 18 hours play time. One thing, burning MP3 files on to a blank CD with the Mac is way easier then on my old windows machine. It took me about five minutes to work out how to do it.

However if you are wanting to play these books as audio then it’s not the cd capacity but the playing time. The cd size worked to I think from memory the 650MB cd was 80 minutes approx. playing time, So depending on which way you want to play the files might be worth looking at the way you wish to write the data to the disks and dvd’s don’t always play in optical drive players.

I’m pretty sure I can buy blank DVDs that can take about 4.6GB so I’ll look online to order some of those. I was hoping they would be available in the Apple store but I think blank DVDs are to old technology for apple to worry about.
