You could always buy an older player (like the iRiver H340 or Toshiba Gigabeat F) and replace its HDD with a higher capacity drive. If you don't mind messing with the iPod video, there is a 240GB HDD available for it. Just install Rockbox and thank Apple for the hardware while giving iTunes a kick in the backside.
As for standard SD cards, the full size SDXC goes up to 128GB, but I'm not sure which stable Rockbox targets use regular SD cards.

If you look on Amazon or ebay you can find several different models of SD to CF adapters.  Most of these will go up to 64gb (I suspect they will work with 128GB SD cards but haven't been tested with them).  There are also adapters that let you replace IDE hard disks with CF cards, and you should be able to combine the two adapters to replace a HD with an SD card.  iPod mini's will accept CF cards directly, and I've heard of success up to 64GB cards.  The mini's should also accept SD cards in the above mentioned adapter.

I personally have converted a Gigabeat F10 to use a 32gb CF flash card using an adapter.  Now that prices on 64GB CF cards have fallen to under $100 I may try to double the capacity of my player sometime soon.
