iRiver makes some decent mp3 players, and their players that don't act 
as USB Mass Storage devices can be made to work with the userspace 
ifp-line program, which has an mc backend.  I'm happy with my iPod 
mini.  With gtkpod, practically all iPods work really well, so you 
could pick up a 1G iPod Shuffle for $129+tax/shipping and have fun with 
that.  HTH,
