Ask And Ye Shall Receive A Cheap Rockbox Player?
Ray M:
It seems we are waiting for compatible devices, rather than asking Sandisk and Chinese producers to make one.
What is the ideal combination of inexpensive components for a Rockbox player, which could be suggested to manufacturers?

I have posted the following question to various suppliers/manufacturers via Amazon UK:
Can Ruizu produce a Rockbox compatible player please? Requirements/spec: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,51071.msg235795.html#msg235795
Milardo:
Is it possible to make a "lite" version of rockbox, meaning just fm radio (if it has it) and audio file playback and all the sound/playback settings? For me, at least all the themes, plugins, etc. are great, but I use rockbox for music file playback and definitely need the sound settings to get clean powerful sound with lots of bass.
If this is possible, is it possible to port it to players that have less memory, cheaper components, like the agptek A02 or the ruizu X02?
Also, whatever the agptek rocker uses for hardware, manufacturers should use the hardware as a starting point maybe, but use a cheaper case like the agptek A02, omit bluetooth, but have fm radio, can it be done? Also, somehow get that great battery life of the agptek A02? Or would having rockbox installed reduce that?
Ray M:
Apparently, Amazon UK did not like me repeatedly asking the same question of suppliers/manufacturers.
They deleted all of my questions, including 1 on Amazon US.
Others could ask a similar question once or twice:

Good budget players to ask the above question of:

Milardo makes excellent suggestions also.
