  • Broke after 121 days stupid piece of crap

  • I have this model, its ok but having to buy software leaves a bad taste and this is why I might never buy another one of their products. That and the fact I now need to do a DIY battery replacement. Archos - 4/10

  • really its only 130 dollars on amazon cheaper if u buy used ones

  • it was good 2 years ago after you paid extras like an internet broswer, a wall charger, a docking station but the battery last 1 hour on full charge and the wifi support is the old technology, the only good thing is the screen size and picture quality thats when the batterys not flat

  • omg you're horrible

  • the archos has up to 300 gigs i thought

  • I got that for christmas =D

  • this might sound like a stupid question but...when it says its got built in wi-fi does that mean that it can get on the internet anywhere or that if there is a wireless network i can access it?

  • you have to have wireless internet where you are to get to it

  • I Get It Today Lol ...

  • me too xD

  • i have a question i just bought the 4 gb version at blokbuster for 100 bucks and i want to know how much is the internet plug in or watever its called?? im talking about the program that u use to surf the web. i need to know how much it is. please answer me thanks.

  • $30

  • iPod touch is better I got the 2nd gen and it's much better

  • the archos has up to 160gb of storage, the ipod touch only has up to 32gb. Ipod touch is outdated!

  • 160GB is over duiing it. It is overrated

  • Thats ridiculous. If you have a large music collection and want room to grow, in addition to adding pictures, video, etc. the more GB the better.

  • 160GB is not overkill if you have massive amounts of MEDIA (photos, music, and full-length video)!

  • may i have a question? Thank-you well the question is : is the video dock the dvr station? If so how do you use it

  • thats a fat expensive mp3 player the samsung p2 is way better

  • i do respect an opinion but can that get on the internet and watch this very video in automatic full screen in a crisp screen and its not all that expensive if ya get it from the right place.

  • It's not just an mp3 player. Samsung does not play in this arena.

  • man i hope i can get that wonder-brick.

  • Just ordered the 4gb version from walmart for 188 dollars should have it by wednesday.

  • Hi, I have an Archos 605 80gb and i have problem when I do the refresh of the arclibrary after I created a Playlist, and i go in "music","playlist" there are no playlists! why? then, if i browse the files i can see the playlists, but i don't choose any song, because when i click the playlist, it starts with the first song in it. The problem is that there are no playlist when you go in music icon after a refresh of arclibrary. Can you help me, please?

  • i just use bitcomet to download movies onto it

  • I just got it ! =D

  • $30 web. Is that monthly or a one time charg ?

    Is there any thing you pay monthly or whats the dael

  • one time

  • can you use the internet browser anywhere?

  • anywhere with wifi

  • Fe**ing hell, do Archos put anything on it or do you have to pay for nearly everything!?!?

  • how do u download images into the player when surfing the web? can anyone help please?

  • You don't need to convert dvds I worked out how to connect it to my dvd player using the gen station and now just copy dvd straight onto the archos. I can also record from sky its briliant!!

  • I have the 80gb version and the docking station does any1 know how to connect it to my dvd player so I can put dvds on the Archos?

  • an easier way is to download dvd decrypter,install on your pc decrypt the dvd into vob files straight to your connected archos, either select the the full dvd or just the movie and hey presto, all told about fifteen min. just trying now to make sure

  • yeah works a treat , i have the cinema plug in though, you may wanna get it as you will have all the audio tracks in AC3 and you need this plug in, to do it the way you want just connect the in section on the dvr station to the dvd player,play the dvd , press recorder on the archos, instead of tv program guide select video recorder, then press ok. now you are recording the dvd press x to stop. hope these help.

  • Can someone fucking answer me please?

  • you NEED to buy the browser. No way to use internet without it. I have One. You MUST buy the browser, cant download it, its impossible. Its the best gadget i ever had. But u have to spent $40 extras for the browser and the 'cinema plugin'. Hope now you are happy my friend. C ya

  • So you have to buy wifi because I thought it was supposed to come in it like the touch and do you just like go to a store and download it onto the Archos and pay $30-40 or it it like a little thing that attaches to it?

  • no, it says in the video that the wifi is built in

  • Do you NEED the Web Browser he talks about to browse the web or can you connect directly connect to your local WiFi router?

  • i think Walmart has the best prices for the 605 30 gb archos, and it will come with the dock

  • how do u charge the 605 archos

  • you connect it to the computer using their special USB cable, or if you also bought the DVR dock station you plug it into the wall outlet and then put the 605 player on it (with the DVR station it charges a lot faster).

  • there are 3 ways - using the usb connected to a pc but this is slow; use a docking station like the dvr station; or buy a simple wall charger (I bought one from ebay for a few pounds)

  • so is it like this you know how he said if you want internet when u buy it does it remain $20 dollars like when u buy it like in Walmart its $188.54 cents so would that plus a nother $20 in it if u get internet?

  • ipod touch's better...

  • Screen size on ipod touch isnt near this though is it......

  • That screen is what I want this for.

  • The widgets are free now from what I hear, they didn't sell so they released it for free

  • where do they sell it

  • online and at circut city its a must get im using it right now-i usedit to watch this vid and surf the net

  • if i have a router do i still need to pay 30 bucks for the web browsing???

  • if i have a router do i still need to pay 30 bucks for the web browsing???

  • Is it $50 per month? or is the extra money you pay count for ever?

  • 30 dollars for the web browser application. you need to have an internet connection or use someone elses. coffeshop, your own, airport. as long as you got the browser and a connection then youre set.

  • I'm thinking about buying 1. Do the speakers sound good?

  • ok let me tell you the truth. this device sucks. i returned it after a week. speakers are ok i guess. loud enough but not the best quality. sort of like a phone speaker.

    this device is not stable. it was rushed to the market. too many problems and bugs. you will eventually want to return it.

  • There's a guy that posted a video on here that said hes had his for months and has had no problems. Cnet did a side by side VS the Ipod touch and the Archos won. I never saw a bad review about this product so it makes me wonder about the people that are complaining about it.

  • Its getting better every day. Its to complex to be great on the first hit. If you want it easy and working try the apple iPod touch. But you don't have enough memory and it looks real cheap ;) but somebody likes it maybe you to :)

  • Speakers sound are enough but not great. Better is to use the headphones.

  • You pay a one time $30 fee to get the Web Plug-in.

  • how much is it if u wanna watch tv and if u have one tell me where u bought it

  • Archos pwns, I have one and I love it, the one down side though is the battery, I hope they can improve on this for the next model.

  • cOol -
