I'm with Possum on this one, I like striker fired guns as much as any other as long as the one I am holding is reliable and I can shoot it well. And for me, that's despite owning a 1911 (and picking up another soon) and a couple of revolvers.
The XD 5" 9mm I own has SA's Custom Carry package on it and the trigger is better, the fiber optic sights are quick to pick up and its an accurate gun...at least for me. I am not a great shot, but these newer plastic guns seem to be more accurate than I can get them to be. So I own several of the XDs, sold the Storm due to too long a trigger reach despite the small backstrap, and own an M&P 9mm.
While the trigger on the M&P is not as good as a Glock or an XD in my opinion, it offers one of the most comfortable grips out there for smaller hands regardless of metal or plastic frames that I have encountered. And if the pistol is comfortable and you can accomodate the trigger, you're getting something pretty good.
