I used to use a Sansa Clip and really like it. It is a straightforward USB mass storage device so you can copy file with your favourite GUI or plain old rsync. It also plays Ogg Vorbis as well as MP3. The only reason I stopped using it is that I now use my phone to listen to music. -- Neil Bothwick If I save time, when do I get it back?
