"I'm assuming, if you have an M4B, that you bought it off the iTunes Store. Audible provides all the audiobooks for the iTunes Store at the current time.

You have two options here:

Break the digital rights management (DRM) software that is built into the M4P/M4B format. This is very illegal
in the US, and probably why you won't
be able to find an app to do it
easily.
Go to Audible and explain how you bought their product from iTunes and want to use it on a different platform.

The ugly side of DRM is that it prevents the format-shifting you want to do and would normally be legal (even in the US). Think of your situation as akin to trying to convert a DVD to play on an iPod/iPhone: it is technically feasible, but the restrictions of breaking DRM make it illegal, and instead require you to buy it again in a different format."
