I'm not as familiar with iPod pricing as I might be if I actually had one, but I went with a Sansa player, mostly for the (massively) better battery life it gets.
I think the smallest hard drive version of the iPod has always been around $250. Each release they bump up the capacity and features of that base (now classic) model. For example, I have a gen 4 which has a 20gb drive and monochrome screen that cost me $250. The new gen 6 iPod classic now has a 120GB drive, a color screen that plays movies and games.
