Other recomended options are the older iRiver Players (i can't remember wether you need Rockbox installed to make uncompressed recordings) and the Trekstor Vibez which can do 16bit/48kHz uncompressed recordings... All three players should give very decent results when hooked up to an external preamp and Mic.
