Mac Rumors talks about the rumored Flash iPod. My question is: will it read the Ogg files ? Will it work without the crippled iTunes, the software that lose feature at each release, and so work painlessly with Linux and other Free Software ? I doubt so given how Apple support Open Source software.

I still don't understand the iPod Photo that does not have a flash media reader...

Update (Dec 8): I was unclear. The iPod works fine with Linux, thanks to the combined effort of developpers that reverse engineered the proprietary format of the iTunes database. But this has been done without Apple's help that did not even provide documentation.
