Yeah, I used to feel that way too, until I found out the way that their shuffle function works... Apparently if you play the same playlist twice shuffled, it will play the exact same songs in the same order. That's just unacceptable!
Also, apparently there's some problem with the way directories work - you can only shuffle things on the same directory level, or something like that.
Still, I think the iRiver players would be my second choice after the Karma. The color screens and the fact you can record are pretty cool. And it supports formats like Ogg and FLAC, which is a must for me. The combination of AllOfMp3 and an Ogg-capable player is much better than iTunes and an iPod.
