Trusted Reviews have published a review of the iRiver Story eBook reader. 'A glance at the bottom edge reveals a headphone jack, power/lock switch and (behind a flap) a mini-USB port and an SD card reader. We particularly like the latter addition, not least in light of the presence of 2GB of integrated storage as well. At the back of the Story, meanwhile, is a thin slit inside which sits an integrated speaker for listening to audio books and potentially recorded memos created using the integrated microphone. Recording memos is one of a number of almost useful extra features, such as a calendar and a written memo application. We're not against such additions per se, but since there's no way to synchronise these with any other service (Outlook, Google etc) or device, it's hard to see anyone using them seriously.'
