I should clarify what I mean by "cheap": less than $20 or $30 is my goal.
So, I'll do some trolling around eBay.
Geeks.com have some cheapie players, here's one for $26 which says it
works with linux:

Disclaimer: I have no experience with this particular unit, but i have
purchased other cheap players at geeks.com in the past which were OK.

Also at geeks.com is:
512MB SP-Advance USB2.0 MP4/MP3/Voice Digital Player 1" LCD
http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?InvtId=SP-MP363A-0062&cpc=RECOM
Does anyone have any experience with this player. It is a few dollars
more than the one mentioned above, and only has 512MB, but it plays ogg
files and mp4 video, as well as displaying jpeg files. I doesn't say
that it works with linux, but it also does not specify Windows (or any
other OS). Its requirements only mention a USB port and a CD-ROM
drive. It also does not say that it operates as a mass storage device,
but... So does anyone know, for sure, if it will "just work" on a linux
box?
