AFAIK there are no good mp3/ogg players available yet, some are good enough though. > The basic requirement is that it should be just a standard umass device, > so I could upload dirs with music files onto it, and then simply tell the > device to play all files in a certain directory, or make some playlists > and play them sequentially.

It has several flaws, but back then it was the best device I could find. I wouldn't be surprised if it still is. I wrote about the H340 in general at: http://www.fabiankeil.de/produkt-erfahrungen/iriver-h340.html and about using it with FreeBSD at: http://www.fabiankeil.de/freebsd/iriver-h340.html The texts are in German, you might have to run them through one of the website translation services. Even if you decide to get a different player, I strongly suggest that you get one that can boot Rockbox. http://www.rockbox.org/ Fabian -- http://www.fabiankeil.de/
