I'm gonna buy the next available device that has 128+ GB and can play FLAC, whatever it may be. This ipod news bums me out. I really want to get one since my 08' model is on its last legs, but I don't have the cash at the moment and I know the prices are going to skyrocket. :sigh:

Micro SD cards come in 128gb flavors now, so all you need is a device that can read class 10 cards, which is a poo poo load of devices.

I'll have to do some research. It has been a while since I looked around, but the last time I went looking for a device either it didn't quite work with class 10 cards -or- playing FLAC files significantly reduced batter life (something about decoding not being optimized).

Yeah, anyone got any recommendations for iPod-level (100gb+, good battery life) mp3 players in the future when my classic gives up the ghost? I know people liked the Sansa Clip (?) but that hasn't been updated for years.

I prefer having a dedicated device for music to save battery and space on my other devices.

Another thread pointed me to this, which looks awesome: http://www.head-fi.org/products/fiio-x3-portable-music-player
