the headbox dont work after 2 months you have to press the shell to make it work every hour hanging 2-3 times Fm-Transmitter only usable with Headset Radio dont work good The new firmware help not for the crashes and scrolling is very bad Archos are cheap and support are is unfriendly Keep away of cheap Products Archos are cheap and support are is unfriendly Keep away of cheap Products Archos 9 is a JOKE for me not 200 dollars worth.
Btw i have the archos 605 wifi (to anyone tht's thinking about gettin it) and to tell u the truth its not that bad but they could ighly improve in customer satisfactrion, the device itself isn't that bad, but there isn't a store that gives free apps that are made for the archos, and it doesn't have many good games, when i got mine, the headphones were messed up, one of them was about half the langth of the right. So overrall if u wanna watch tv shows on a device get this, but for other, itouch
the quality on the speaker is what you would expect from a portable device, but the sound when playing back on the tv is excellent. since everyone seems to keep going on about the iphone . ipod touch i'll defend the archos for a change.... the picture quality is miles better and on the ipods you cant record from the tv, which you can with the archos using the dvr station. superb bit of kit is this

i had this before but its not very good, if u have limewire i wouldnt suggest downloading songs on it from there, i did it and then my hhd failed.. then i got a new one and then something messed up and it wouldnt let me download music, this all happend less then one mouth, i just got the itouch, alot easier and i love it alot more.
lol, yeah, get a 16GB player for the same price of this 30GB player, and be stuck to iTunes, CNET did an un-biased comparison between the 605 WiFi and iPod Touch and out of 5 tests the 605 won 3 of them, now Cnet are usually major iPod fans but this was really sumthin.
can someone plz help me with my problem with the archos, its the 605 30gp wifi and i downloaded a couple of songs on it by limewire to windows media player to archos, but when i played one of the songs it said file corrupted! then it shut off then after that i try to turn it on and it just stays at the screen where it says ARCHOS Entertainment your way, CAN SOMEONE PLZZ TELL ME WHATS WRONG AND WAT I SHOULD DO TO GET MY BBY FIXED UP!
kinda gay yo have to buy the WEB plug-in from Archos website for $30 and da other plug-ins... optional...they should of juss added all the plug-ins...:( i might juss go with a IPOD touch... iunno yet...
I am so getting one of those... for x-mas it looks way better den Ipodtouch...and it has more functions... now my question is uhmmm does dis device still work with da helmet cam does any1 kno??? let me kno
I have a quesion about the 605...I heard some where that the 605 could be used as a portable storage device AND that you could access the files that were in the portable storage files. My question is IF I downlaod a program using the portable device feature on the Archos.... and I downlaod a program (such as Bejeweled the game) can I run that program through the Archos device ???
Hey can anyone tell me where I can find one of these (160GB) everywhere I've seen (on the web or not) has been sold out, and I've been looking for a couple weeks now. They look sweet btw, definitely better than the iPod Touch.
for those of you who got the archos605 device i know youre getting crazy how to put all the plug-ins to your device. i know thats the first question you will ask.... how to connect using wifi or how to record etc. even the manualbook is hard to follow but i got it and fixed mine and here's how step by step so you will not get crazy.
just got my luck coz' the person whos selling it was close to my city so i didnt think twice. i feel no sorry about this and my bucks coz' itsave me alot instead of buying $2000 for mini laptop or even ipodtouch. even the opera browser is better than ipod sarafi trust me.
Its in my hand now and im typing using Archos605. i got the 30gb model but i think this is enough space for me and i want it so badly that i cant wait for 80/160gb so i decided to get the first release 30gb. i think 80/160gb will be available soon oct. but you know all archos605 is sold out even in electronic store so you better order to thier website/contact# or ebay. im one of the lucky person to have this on the first place.
Im fucking Pissed Why are they ignoring the ARCHOS 604 WIFI first of all they have NO HACKS and it needs a FLASH PLAYER VERSTION 9 I wished i did'nt buy archos 604 waste of money. im gonna have to re sell this thing on ebay saying it's a IPOD TOUCH or somthing lol
ur right funky ipod sux all. music from itunes, movies from itunes, pay more from itunes, even loonytunes is not free. hate iphone/ipodtouch slim but slippery when wet
archos is the best and beat ipods even laptops. good for all recording and its FREE no itunes required. very friendly and usefull device even compatible in old OS win2k will works. unlike itunes needs XP w/ sp2 suckit will yah!
Archos has don it again. I have the AV700 and I'm really looking forward to buying this one. I especially like the way they customize in every manner, where you have to buy codecs etc.
