Thanks for the suggestions PA. I'll ask at anythingbutipod

Thanks for the suggestion. Any models you'd recommend based on my criteria? My understanding is that Sony DAPs don't have gapless lossy playback or the ability to browse by album artist, and their non-touchscreen models don't come in anything larger than 16 GB. Is there a model I'm unaware of...
