I own a Gigabeat S, and it just sits on my shelf. The SQ is sub-par, even with Rockbox, and there's no way to use the LOD to fix it (unless I wanted to build my own). But the player itself is nice - small, decent sized screen, good controls, and has a Rockbox port. I just wish the SQ wasn't so pitiful.

The Gigabeat F is awesome, however - and very cheap, on eBay. I actually have one for each of my kids.
