        It isn't on  the market anymore, but I have a Rio Karma that is 
Linux friendly.  It comes with Java code to download and upload 
MP3s/OGGs/etc to the player.  It has a little docking station that has
Ethernet and does TCP/IP.  The device was way ahead of its time, too bad
Rio quit business.
