this looks amazing except there's no hard drive and it's kind of big and it's not really an mp3 player.

yeah i was looking at that only i remembered there being some sort of HD "solution" & i couldn't figure out what it was

Pretty much every player apart from the Apple lineup...iAudio X5, Creative Zen Vision M, Archos Gmini, Philips HDD6330, etc.

i hear the Cowon JetAudio X5 is the best mp3 player and recorder out there.

But do they have proper mic inputs? I've been searching for a portable HDD (or decent size flash memory) audio recorder, which can record uncompressed audio, has a good quality mic input, and can transfer files to a computer via USB.

This one is kind've like what dan posted above. Again, not really an mp3 player an uses flash instead of a (potentially much larger) hard drive.

I have an iAudio X5, and while it does have a proper line-level input (requiring an included accessory connector), it won't record uncompressed audio (stereo 320 kb/s MP3 is the high quality setting). Sorry. I'm very happy with it for my purposes, though.

I fully recommend the Microtrack 24/96, I had one until some fuckwit stole my bag in New Zealand. Downside is battery life of under 10 hours. More of a proffessional recording that you can listen to mp3s on.
