I have an old iPod Touch 1st Gen that I really still use quite a bit (mostly for email and the like). But since I moved all of my computers to Linux, I can't access the device anymore and can't transfer music to and from it. I'm not willing to install Windows in any form be it a VM or the like, So I'm going to get a new MP3 player and just use the Touch like a handheld for email and podcasts I can stream online. Can anyone recommend a good, cheap 8gb MP3 player that will work with Fedora? If possible, I'd like something that simply shows up as a flash drive or something instead of having the need to install libraries and other programs to access it.
I'm in a similar but manageable predicament: I have two portable media devices - a 30GB Creative Zen:M from ~2006, and a ZEN X-Fi3 (currently available). The former requires utilities to move media/data to/from the device; in the linux world gnomad works very well. In the latter case, the device mounts like a flash drive, and has a bay for an sd card, which when used shows up as a separate mount point.
I would think that for older Apple-related devices there would still be linux utilities that allow you to transfer and adjust media on those devices, no?
Thanks! Anthony Papillion
