iRiver iHP-120

I just received one of these (20Gb MP3 player with FM radio and
direct recording to MP3) and I have to say it looks fantastic. I got
it initially to allow recording of voice to MP3 but obviously will
use it for personal hifi too.

I may put together some sort of review when I've used it for a
while, but one thing that sticks out straight away is the build
quality, it looks and feels really good, far better than I expected
from seeing online photos. The 'tie clip' remote is also excellent
as it accepts alternative headphones, so if you don't like the in
ear ones supplied it is simple to use any others without losing
remote control ability. It also has lineand optical in/out for easy
connection to other audio kit.

All in all a much better package than the iPod IMHO and to me at
least much nicer looking, though some will disagree with that!
