Sansa clip+/zip it is! Now to find out where I can get one...
You're welcome. I'd recommend getting one of the 4GB models. Amazon has both:The Clip Zip is a bit more versatile. Audiobooks are easier to access because SanDisk created a separate folder for them on the main menu. On the Clip+, the audiobook folder is buried inside the music folder and was always a pain to access.

Other features the Zip has that the Clip+ doesn't:
  • native support for non-DRM AAC files
  • 1.1" color display for album art only
  • micro USB port (vs mini USB for Clip+)
  • built-in stopwatch
  • main menu audiobook/podcast folder
