the iriver h120. it's out of production but you can find it very easily on ebay. new, at half the original price (which, maybe, is still too much...). also good for recording. m
I can also fully recommend the iRiver players (I have an H120, formally called the iHP-120). It has an optical in and out, line level in and out, mic-level in, and headphone out. It mounts just like a hard drive, and in fact sometimes I use it as a backup device or just to carry large files around. The headphones that come with it are truly awful, but most are. The little remote is pretty handy, but most headphone plugs don't fit in it without a little adaptor which is included with the device, but is easy to lose. The UI is pretty bad, for sure. I've been thinking for a while about switching to Rockbox, which hopefully should fix that problem. -spencer
