The Samsung Galaxy S is an Android phone. Last time I checked they were going for about $50 on ebay and they work well as an MP3 player, especially if you install CyanogenMod. On 16 October 2014 8:49:06 PM AEDT, Geoff D'Arcy <geoff.darcy@gmail.com> wrote:

I am looking for recommendations for a portable mp3 player that will work with Linux. Basicly I hope it appears as a USB drive so one can simply copy the music to and from the player. A couple of years ago I brought a Samsung Galaxy S. It's basically Samsung's imitation of an ipod touch, looks like a phone but is not a phone. I put a 32G sd card in it and it's been great.
In retrospect I should have brought a prepaid Android phone and used it
in flight mode. Would have done the same thing at more than half the cost.
Works will with Linux, in fact I use rsync to keep the podcasts I listen to in sync.

Note:Its for a friend, I have no knowledge and in fact little
interest in
such devices. I am sure though this has been discussed before on this list. A search on the net produced results that were some years out of date.
