Although I haven't used one, I think a Palm Zire might fit your
needs nicely. It doesn't have a whole lot a memory, but it does what
you want for under $100. Supported in Linux starting with version
2.4.20. If you need more memory, a Palm m105 may also do the job and
fit your price range, but I don't think it's a "current" product
anymore.
