The fact that it runs Linux is pretty neat, too. And it comes in pink!
You wouldn't happen to know where I could find one, would you? There's a listing on eBay, but it's a bit expensive and ships from Russia. (I'm in the U.S.)
Glad it suits your needs! Unfortunately I don't know where to get one currently. I bought mine at some retailer when it was still in production. I saw some more listings on eBay, but they are all very expensive (maybe it gained some late popularity?). I can only suggest to keep checking eBay or other marketplaces. You could also look for the similar R1 model.
Be advised though if you do get one: Last time I tried I couldn't get the device to boot up in the alternative firmware's safe mode to access the internal storage. It's no issue for me since I use an SD card and I had already flashed the Rockbox firmware a long time ago. But the problem seems to be either with my machine or with newer USB ports in general since it worked on older machines. I guess this is something that would be solvable with some tinkering though.
