I would like to get an MP3 player to use with my Lenny box. My specs are
few but perhaps odd:

- Cheap.
- Used OK.
- 512MB or larger OK.
- Uses AAA or AA batteries, preferably 2.

The smaller Creative players are tiny, rugged, reliable, have
excellent audio quality, and transfer files without special software
(I use cp or midnight commander). They are inexpensive: $50 to $100
list price. They use a single AAA cell and typically run longer than
other brands of players.

MUVO TX :: usb 2.0, 256 Mbyte

MUVO TX FM :: usb 2.0, good FM tuner

Beware: Some of the larger Creative players require the use of
software such as gnomad.

And the gnomad in Debian is borked!

You need to compile your own, but then it "just works".

It almost work with libmtp in amarok and konqueror, you can erease files and list stuff, but not upload new files ;-) That stops being fun rather quick.
