I recently bought a iRiver T30 1 GB for some $110 USD. It can play ogg files. Works with Linux, using gphoto (libgphoto2). Copy voice files from it (has a recorder built-in, nice feature to make your boss remember things he said) and put ogg (and mp3) files in it. Sound is nice. With Linux I use gphoto (libgphoto2) as root to access files. Could be simpler I guess, but I'm lazy, so I copy/paste commands. One of these days I'll make a userland Perl interface. Cheers, Al
