archos 5 or 7? buying one but unsure whats better?

[NigeriaHammad7]

@masson11 Depends on what is more practical for u, I just ordered the 5 because I think the 7 is a little too big for my liking.

[chancho00]

I have just installed the 1.7.33 upgrade and have problems with the wifi, when I switch it on then goes off by itself and only when formatting fixes but after a while becomes the problem

[ihave2passgas]

Steve Chippy (or anyone who knows what im talking about),Ok so i have a sprint phone with an unlimited data plan and i was wondering if i could connect my archos 5 to my phone via bluetooth and use my sprint internet connection on my Archos 5. Thanks-

[lphdaking]

does it read flash movies?

[lphdaking]

@lphdaking

nobody tells me??

[kbraun819]

Yes, It can play both flash movies and flash games

[JjGhura]

n900 or iphone 3gs help

[faisalm1991]

n900 has better hardware and software. iphone has fun apps and games. thats about it. the n900 should get tons of apps and games but not as much as the iphone since the iphone is more popular among people. also the n900 is very open and free, while the iphone is locked to apple and whatever they want to do with it.

[nonsenseie]

Man you guys have the best in depth information about pocket devices, thanks.

[orelsi1000]

One question here:

What about e-books? Different kinds of them: txt, pdf, lit....

I second the request for a vid with heavy pdf docs/books.

[HeroesFail]

There's another vid already on ebook reading.

"Ebook reading on the Archos Android Tablet"

[orelsi1000]

I must have missed that one. Thanks.

[orelsi1000]

I love it! 1 hour well spent, thanks man.

[TheNitrohp]

really difficult watch youtube in umpc psp iphone cellphone..... netbooks have more power for watch youtubevideos....

[HeroesFail]

Just ordered this yesterday. Not liking the two crashes, but you said those were the only times it has ever actually crashed?

Bit odd for them both to occur during a 1 hour live broadcast, lol. Thanks for the video.

[Epifrin]

Could you do a video about the reading of heavy pdf documents?

Thanks for the vids!

[redswap001]

I really love this lives videos...thanks a lot steve...

[stevechippy]

Warts and all!

[gezzaky]

One Hour!?
