I'm looking to get a new, flash-based mp3 player in the 2-6 GB range. These days I exclusively use Linux, so I need a player capable of playing nice. I gather that there's some limited support for a protocol called MTP, but basically it sounds like you usually need a player that operates as a USB mass storage (UMS) device in order for things to work smoothly.

Anyone have suggestions about what players I should check out? My only somewhat weird requirement is that I'd really like it to have a decent FM tuner.

So far I've looked seriously at the iPod Nano (2nd gen, 4GB), the SanDisk Sansa e260, the iRiver Clix (4GB), and the Cowon iAudio U3 (2GB).

Thanks for your help,

Nick
