The Cowan Iaudio D2 is excellent. My boyfriend wanted to get one and did 
a fair bit of research on them. I'd never heard of it before, but it 
advertises supporting Linux, supports Ogg and the sound quality is 
simply amazing. Canada Computers sells them (D2 = 2gb, D4 = 4gb) for 
~$160. Another great feature is that it support SD Cards as well, for 
more space.

Google it and you'll see some pretty impressive reviews. Oh, it also 
plays video. We've watched Ghost in the Shell and Serenity on it 
already. The thing is *tiny*, but it somehow works.

My opinion, but I think it rocks. I am planning to get one for myself 
once I get a couple bills cleared up.
