Steve, have you tried GSPlayer? It really looks and feels like Winamp.

I don't know if the 6800's are yet prepared for as much as a 16 gig
card, but certainly a 4gb card would give you enough of a music choice
to keep ya happy for a good while.

I use my 6800 as a music player, although I do have two very major
complaints about it.  First, I usually use it with Bluetooth with some
very nice Plantronics Bluetooth stereo headphones I got about 15
months ago, but yes, that does help drain one's battery, even if it's
the higher-capacity one.  Second, I'm not a fan of Windows Media
Player, and that's all you get on WM6.  Where the heck is Winamp for
WM6 is what I want to know.  There are other choices, but none as
accessible as WMP, clunky and slow to respond as it is.

on-board, and came with a 512MB mini-SD card.  Granted, I could buy a bigger
SD card, but I doubt I could get one up to 16GB.  I think this is why it's
still more common in America to see people with both a phone/PDA device and
an MP3 player separately.  That, and from what I've heard, the Europeans and
Asians have better phones than we do as far as memory, and being able to do
multiple things well.  For instance, a lot of my friends who used to use the
Blackberry always claimed that it was great for email, web browsing, and
even music, but awful as a phone.  I have to say, the HTC (Sprint Mogul, in
my case), seems to do all of it very well.
