I do think the Story is overpriced, something I'm a little grumpy about because I've effectively only just bought mine and iRiver is about to release a new, updated model with - allegedly - greater capabilities.
I should have been more wary, really. Not long before I bought the Story I'd bought an iRiver MP3 player ( the B30 model) - and while it has both an FM and a digital DAB+ radio built in and the quality of the audio output far exceeds an iPod's output (plus it supports far more formats and isn't tied into using iTunes), it too has somewhat eccentric operating software that is badly in need of an update.
At the time, both the B30 and Story seemed better options than what Sony and Apple were offering. They still could be, if iRiver could manage to be a bit proactive.
