    Amazon.com company Audible this morning announced that its BlackBerry app is now available on BlackBerry App World (apart from only on its own website).

    If that’s not enough to make you rush over there, the company is also including, for a limited time, a free download of David Baldacci’s bestselling thriller Divine Justice.

    With the Audible app, BlackBerry users in the U.S. and Canada can shop, download and listen to audio content from Audible.com, which boasts over 75,000 titles in its catalog.

    Key features:

    - Stream audio samples for all titles
    - Download or stream purchases directly to your BlackBerry
    - Toggle between Wi-Fi and cellular connections (when available)

    Audible for BlackBerry v1.4.2 is available for the BlackBerry Tour, Curve, Pearl and Bold series of smartphones. It should be downloadable right about … now.

    On a sidenote: Audible promises apps for iPhone / iPod touch and Android are on the way, too.
