As an old codger who is probably the only person in the world without
a PMP I would welcome suggestions.

Requirements:-

1 High quality audio reproduction
2 Non-proprietary headphone socket
3 Manageable by software running under Win Xp Pro
4 Memory - 2GB probably big enough
5 MUST play tracks continuously i.e. gapless. I listen to opera where
the CDs are divided into multiple tracks. Do not want a break betwen
them. Please don't advise that I merge them into one track (hope the
reasons are obvious)
6 Not fussy about file format. I guess order of precedence hi to lo a)
FLAC b) WMA c)AAC d)ATRAC e)MP3
7 Interface to PC USB
8 Style is of little consequence - it will be in my pocket!
9 Video playback not a requirement but if necessary to achieve the
others not a problem.

TIA
