My Archos 604's battery croaked and my 3rd Gen iPod's battery is on its last legs. I don't want to give Archos anymore of my money to replace the battery on a player i'm not in love with so i figure i should start fresh. Right now the Cowon D2 is tempting because of its SDHC slot. Also if its close to the Cowon in sound the new Creative Zen is tempting. So i want Flash, good sound, 32gb or expandable to such levels and under $200.00. Are there any other players with SDHC slots or are these two it? And which is the better player.

I use any one of the following headphones: UM-1's, PX-100's, KSC75 (Krammer mod)

Linux support or the ability to drag and drop as a hard drive is a must.

what type of music do you listen?

 

[RokabillySwagger]

Prog, Metal, Punk, Jazz occasionally, Rock, a lot of stuff really. I would like some sort of adjustable EQ so i can fit the sound to what i need.

The Zen is not drag and drop and does not have native Linux support. I think your major options would be Cowon, the Sony Axxx, or Rockboxing your iPod and replacing the battery.

It's not UMS Drag & Drop, but it's MTP Drag and Drop, meaning if you have a Windows comp, you'll be fine as far as drag and drop goes.

I ended up ordering the Cowon D2 and a 16GB SDHC card. I'll bring my impressions when I get to hear it for a while
