Playaways (Digital Audiobooks for people on the go!)
Check out a playaway. Ready to go, wherever you go.
Playaways are now available. Playaway is the simplest way to listen to audio on the go. Each Playaway comes with the digital content already pre-loaded on it and a battery to make it play. Simply plug in earbuds and enjoy. No Cassettes. No CDs. No Downloads. Just Play. Each ultra-portable Playaway weighs only two ounces and comes packaged with earbuds and a standard AAA battery to allow for immediate listening. Additionally, Playaway has a universal jack that works with almost any type of headphone or mobility accessory.
