Thanks Dennis. I just spent a few hours surfing around my local (Danish) resellers, found hundreds of USB sticks, but no one - that is NO ONE - specified anything but Windows or Mac. Then, my daughter gave me her wish-list for Christmas : a MP3 player. A new search for those gadgets reveiled - not surprisingly - that Sweden is way ahead of Denmark. At a Swedish company (Jens of Sweden) I found a MP3 player that 1. Can function as an USB memory stick (512 MB) 2. Is fully Linux compatible. 3. Plays ogg.Vorbis...... Ordered it on the spot (please don't tell my daughter). Kaj Haulrich.
