OneNote saves the file as a WMA, and I don't know of an mp3 codec. So,
if your mp3 player doesn't accept wma, then you are out of luck (unless
you want to batch convert using the open source program audacity). Most
players do accept it, so, you should be good.

What version of OneNote? If 2003, the wma is in the notebook folder.
If 2007, it is embedded into the section and you will need to right
click|save as to put it on your player.

One HUGE upgrade, in my mind, is that with ON 2007, if you record the
lecture, then, you listen to it again, any notes you write or highlight
will be synced with the recording. It is pretty slick...
