Can't beat the superTalent MegaScreen I got for Christmas for feature/price ratio. The big issue is that I can't figure out how to get the pictures formatted for it under Linux, but other than that, USB Mass Storage with FM receiver, recording capabilities. I have a 2Gb one, but the SuperTalent Plus has, I think, larger capacity. JSR/
