Is there a user friendly way to access a MTP device from Ubuntu such as an Android 3.0 tablet?

Thanks.

Just Plug it as a storage device.. nautilus will prompt you with what you want to do. – Uri Herrera Aug 28 '11 at 19:48
@Uri, that... didn't happen. – J. Pablo Fernández Aug 28 '11 at 21:07
I'm not sure how is it on Honeycomb, but on Gingerbread on settings>application>development>usb debugging i have ticked the box and whenever i connect my phone to my pc a notification appears on the phone. – Uri Herrera Sep 6 '11 at 19:45
@UriHerrera: Gingerbread does not use MTP, it uses USB mass storage. – Leo Dec 14 '11 at 9:03

One suggestion is to use Ubuntu One or DropBox to move stuff on/off.

Ubuntu's default music management application, Rhythmbox (Applications → Sound & Video → Rhythmbox Music Player), supports first to fifth generation iPods, including the iPod mini, iPod Photo, iPod Shuffle, iPod nano, and iPod Video. Rhythmbox can transfer music to these iPods and create playlists.

I think your answer can be found here in the 10.04 manual:

Portable music players
