Nope, which will be abhorent to many!
I listened extensively to FLAC vs Apple Lossless a few years back, and as both sounded identical to me (with both sounding inferior to WAVs), ease of use won the day (metadata, artwork, and working across several devices) so I bought an iPod and ran with iTunes.

EDIT: There are hack programmes which offer a replacement OS on the iPod which do play FLAC. However, the GUI is pot ugly and you lose all that nice integration!
