Personally I am waiting until everything is up and running on the iPods.
If you absolutely HAVE TO upgrade now (eg. your old player is dead) then:

# alphabet-vs-tags ...Rockbox works this way, no matter what cpu is
executing the code
# drag'n'drop ...see "alphabet-vs-tags"
# replaceable batteries ...archos v1 or give up
# small ...wait for ipod support, but a nano
# expandable memory ...I think the ondio takes memory sticks - maybe others
too.
# list ...http://www.rockbox.org/ ...read 1st line of text and clik on link
in 4th line :)
