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.
