Can't find the "perfect for me" or "close to perfect for me" DAP...

[roadrat]

My criteria is (seemingly) quite simple:
 
32gb min on board or with sd card
good interface (returned the Cowon i10 because of this)
good SQ
10+ hours of real battery time
sub-$300
FLAC
 
 
heck...i almost bought a dang ipod classic yesterday (but didnt because of the interface)
 
Any suggestions?

Clip Zip?

I thought the interface was the best part of the iPod Classic. It doesn't surprise me however that someone might have difficulty finding a DAP that suits all their requirements. This is due to the nature of the market and what sells, seems good and is profitable.

The Sony F, Z series walkmen with neutron or power AMPs APPs add on it, Samsung P3, galaxy player 3.5, 4.2, Archos Yamaha series are great buy under this budget.

Sansa Clip Plus or Sansa Clip ZIP

Samsung P3 seems like a great alternative to the Nano + more space.

Too bad I cant find one new

HM-601? I find the UI is easy and logical
