Hi, +1 on this problem
I live in the UK and have just received my Clip Zip and have been playing with it for a few days now. I use Linux [Debian] and therefore copy music, podcasts etc to it using the MSC mode drag and drop but so far have not managed to get a playlist to show up in the playlist menu let alone play the listed songs. I have tried using a text editor and copying across playlists from rhythmbox after running them through sed to replace / with \ and fromdos to convert all LFs to CRLFs and I also used easytag as per http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/Clip-Clip/HOWTO-Creating-m3u-Playlists-using-easyTAG-on-Linux/td-p/33500
this thread all with no luck so far.
