Samsung produce a range of players, many of which support Vorbis to a greater or lesser degree.

YP-T6

The YP-T6 is an incredibly small flash player with 128/256/512/1024 MB storage, has a mic and FM radio and and Vorbis. The YP-T6 has problems to play Vorbis files created with older encoder-versions.

The YP-T7 has either 512MB or 1GB capacity and supports the same audio formats, which also applies to the YP-F1. It can display JPEGs on its color display.

YP-T9

The YP-T9 supports Vorbis with firmware 1.50 and higher. The older firmware also supports MTP transfers only. Note that new firmware is available in two versions, MTP and UMS. Units purchased in US/Canada come with MTP firmware but can be reflashed with UMS firmware from Samsung's download site.

While the spec sheet for the YP-T9 lists Vorbis support, this is missing from the product package and from the user manual. Samsung tech support could not confirm that the player would play Vorbis files.
