If I want to download books and listen to them while I'm driving, don't I need an iPod to do that?

TeleRead: Will audiobooks be downloadable for offline listening, or will they be streaming only?
Scribd: Both. We think the majority of users will take advantage of streaming audiobooks since its instant and frictionless. However, if you’re hopping on a plane, train or anywhere else without wi-fi, you can download them to your device for offline listening. And there are no limits on how many audiobooks or eBooks you can store to your device – save as many as your device can hold. (Note that this is a change. Previously, the app was limited to 20 downloaded books. No longer.)
1] What do you have? Do you have a laptop?
Just a thought, and I need help with this so jump in if what I am suggesting is not correct.
2] What if you bought a cheap used smartphone. At home you would set it up to attach to your wireless network and download the book. In the car you would play it back. You do not need the smartphone to work as a telephone.
