Is that a Google translation of the Korean, ischeriad? Some of it made me laugh out loud.

If I understand Consideration 4 correctly, it's saying there's no going back on this version. Once you upgrade, you can't downgrade. So waiting for a confirmed version is probably wise.

I'll admit I'm disappointed if the EB03 is getting a model-specific firmware update. iRiver's tech reps here said the new firmware would support both models, but an EB03-only firmware seems to suggest that's not the case. I was hoping the EB01 would benefit from continued development, at least for a while yet.

Ischeriad, in my search for iRiver sites I found the iRiver EU one, which appears to be based in Germany. It doesn't mention the Story, though. Is there another European site that does, or is the European branch mostly focused on sales of mp3 players?
