Another recommendation for the X5. I use the remote control accessory, 
which has quite customizable controls (I switch shuffle on and off a 
lot). An added benefit of the X5 is that it has RockBox, an alternative 
free software firmware that supports more audio formats as well as 
recording to WAV (not just MP3).
