Aaah, a topic after my own heart. Firstly: http://www.hezmatt.org/~mpalmer/blog/general/my_new_love.html although my wife quickly purloined that particular player, and I got an iRiver T30 instead -- slightly chunkier, no FM radio, but a few bucks cheaper. Both are 1GB devices, operate as ordinary usb-storage devices, play oggs, etc etc. I'd recommend either of them as a quality music player. I've since seen something in a JB hifi catalogue which looks an awful lot like the Samsung I linked above for about $150, but I have no idea whether it's innards are the same as the Samsung (and hence whether it supports ogg). - Matt -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
