You can download big MP3s to a compact flash card. I have a 1gb card with about 80 MP3s on it, along with a bunch of other stuff. You can even get a MicroDrive, a PCMCIA card that can hold up to 5gb. Of course, these MicroDrive's cost an arm and a leg. However, the prices for CF cards are getting lower all the time.

You can't download big mp3s to the braillenote can you? because of the system disk size. Or, do you read them with speech?
