[Gllug] MP3/Ogg player hardware?

[Rev Simon Rumble]

I guess I should report back on what I found and decided to buy.  Looks
like OGG support is coming along with some items, though the recommended
Rio Karma doesn't appear to be available any more.

However, I'm wary of hard drive players' long-term reliability, not
least because this will be mounted on my handlebars.  What's more, with
the prices for flash dropping by the minute, why bother?  I'm also
non-plussed about these flash players with built-in memory.  Why not
just allow external cards?  This is what my old (broken) player had.

So what I've found is this:

No OGGs, but it is an improvement on my last player as it supports ID3
and so will display track names.  That's quite a bonus!  I went for
this mostly on price.  No OGGs, but I guess I can write a script to
convert the OGGs.  20 quid is pretty hard to beat!

Will report back how it is when I get it.
