ipod nano alternative?

[hughitt1]

Heya,

i was thinking of getting an mp3 player sometime soon, but am not too sure what all is out there. I wanted to try and keep it small (but not shuffle small).

anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

My Sandisk 256 MB player is great. It's small, though.

I just drag and drop songs from Rhythmbox.

iRiver make good players. I had a great H-140 (actually an iHP 140, they just rebranded them). The flash players need a driver but it's easily available for linux, the H series are just UMS so no driver there.

Radio
Up to 8GB flash memory
MicroSD

also, i can confirm everything (except video transfers) work 100% perfectly in linux with the mass usb storage option. I have one and I love it. Far superior to the nano in EVERY single way.
