X51v and audiobooks (or other wma's)

Ok, so I went ahead and got an X51v. So far, it's not bad. The screen is incredible. So TCPMP and shows rock! But I'm having trouble with audiobooks from netlibrary.com.

You download a wma file, acquire the license on your PC by starting to play the file, then you're supposed to sync it to the device. Which will allow you to play the file. I tried just playing the file, and letting WM10 get the file, but their site doesn't support PIE. So then I tried to do it their way. No good. If I try to sync to a CF card, the file gives an error about the license being either missing or corrupted. WM10 won't sync to the device at all. It simply doesn't show in the list of allowed devices. After a couple of tries, I found that something had erased the partition table on the CF card. It now get prompted to format. I re-format, try the sync, and it zaps the partition table again. What the??

Anyway, has anyone gotten this (or any other protected wma's) to work? Is it related to WM5 or the X51v perhaps? In which case I'm stuck until an update comes along.
