Best Buy sometimes offered them for $200. You definitely need to look
around...

Where can you get these one of them for a lot less? Everywhere I saw
(at a glance, admittedly) was comparable to the 20 GB iPod.

You know, I think he was actually asking about software for getting
music onto the thing.
Personally, I don't think it's all that great a music player for the
money, and really rather overpriced. You can buy a 20gig Rio Karma for a
lot less, and that comes with an ethernet dock. The software for it is
also cross-platform using Java - Rio Music Manager Lite (RMML).
I don't own a Rio Karma, but if I wanted a pure music player, I'd buy
one, no doubt about it.

I'm not sure if there's only ONE project for linux on the ipod, but I do
remember reading somewhere that if the install fails, you can easily go
back to the apple firmware on the ipod:
http://www.ipodlinux.org/FAQ#What_if_something_goes_wrong.3F
so, as far as you backup your music first, you should be fine. I've been
meaning to do it myself. I just haven't made time to venture.

My Archos mp3 player bit the dust and I am considering getting an iPod
mini as a replacement. Looking through web posts, it looks like Linux
support for the iPods is decent: anyone have any big gotchyas that I
should be aware of?
