I too have been looking for a portable Ogg player. I'm afraid I'm a bit
more greedy, and I *need* a lot of storage. If I can't hold 20+ albums,
then I'm not really interested. The music I want to listen to is dependent
on my mood, and it's no good for me to be in a Dimmu Borgir mood if all
I've got on my player is The Faces Of Sarah.

Anyway, the most promising player I've found is the Rio Karma. It not
only supports Ogg, but also FLAC, it's small yet has sufficient storage.
Furthermore, it not only has USB (and IIRC just appears as a USB mass
storage device), but it even has an ethernet port. It seems hard to fault
it at the moment. Now if only I could find somewhere that actually had
one for sale...
