I actually own the iRiver H120 (20GB HardDrive based player) and it works VERY well. Any yes it has a built in mic that works good, and can accept an external mic as well. Also it plugs in perfectly with linux and shows as a usb mass storage device (big reason I bought it). Also ogg support. But then you are starting to look at pretty expensive for these ($250-300). It records from voice in either mp3 or wav files. Also they make flashmemory based players as well that have mics and work as usb storage devices. But I don't know what kind of time limit they have since you are more limited on storage. Probably depends on recording format.
