What could be better than an iPod?

I'm looking for a compact portable mp3 player with plenty of storage and decent organizing.  Something to use with a whole MP3 library.  Something with good battery life that isn't too bulky.  Any suggestions?

Ipods fail at battery life and music formats

I have a rio karma 20gb which is the same price as an ipod 20gb.  It hsa like 3x the battery life, is smaller, has support for mp3, ogg, and a buncha other random wierd formats, and its docking thing even has an ethernet thing so you can hook it up to your computer network to transfer files and stuff.  Works great so far, no problems
