My son has a Cowon iAudio X5L, which is basically the X5 with a larger
battery and much better battery life.  I recently purchased the Cowon
D2.  I like both of them, although we really do not do much with video
on either.

Tamanaco is correct that if you are going to be using it during
exercise, or otherwise jostling it around, then you are much better off
with a flash drive-based player.  If you will not, then you should
probably go with a hard drive-based player where you can get much more
capacity.

I transcode all of the FLACs to mp3 with Robin Bowe's flac2mp3 script. 
It really is not that difficult, and for a flash player with limited
storage you will get much more music onto the player.

The X5 supports Rockbox, but I do not believe the D2 does at this time.
