This is and alright device, I guess when it first available it was great, but these days it's far behind. It's wifi capabilities ate next to none. I'll use it as a video recorder, and music storage.

The Archos is a great little item and it will do a lot on its own How ever the way that Archos markets there product is not good. They tell you all the benefits of using their product. What they don't tell you is that unless you spend another 200.00 plus dollars for plugins the Arcohs is just another mass storage device. The plugin include a web browser, web tv radio,games, cinema, video podcast, real video, and HiDef video. All totaled seven plugins you have to buy to get the full use of the Archos products. Then you need to buy a separate docking unit to connect to your tv and or DVR. After you spend two to three hundred more dollars the Archos is a great little unit. If I had it to do over I would just buy one of the new small laptops. Too each their own but do your research and see if the archos would be what you need.Read full review
Decent unit, but like all the Archos products you need to spend $ to upgrade the unit to be able to surf the web, watch TV, listen to Web Radio etc. Performance of the User Interface is pretty good, does not seem sluggish like some handheld devices. Battery life is decent. I bought the Cinema plug in and watching ripped DVDs is very good; video quality is good and very smooth- unit does not stutter or skip frames. Watching WMV or MPG video - some work fine, others don't. Depends on bitrate, resolution that the video was encoded in and so on. FLASH video is OK, but for now you can't watch HULU. Archos told me this will change at some point when Adobe releases a new version of Flash for their platform.
Super PMP, this smokes the i-touch. Easy to use with a fantastic screen!! The only issue I have had with mine is the touch screen is a little TOO sensative.I select a song and close the cover,and if I touch the screen at all it changes. Not a huge deal because you can lock the screen. But most of the time I'm too lazy to lock it.(holding down the button for 2 seconds can be a pain). Some people don't like the Archos because you have to buy plug-ins for extras, I think its great! Why pay for things you are never going to use.And if you ever feel the need to add something you can upgrade you unit. The Wifi is a great feature (if you want it) It needs a good strong signal to work. But I never seem to have a problem finding a signal.(If your in a airport go stand outside the "gold club" its free)Read full review
