I recently bought one from there and they still have them on offer. The current price is just under £200. I should have posted earlier, hope this is of some use to somebody. |

QUOTE(freizugheit @ May 18 2007, 12:59 AM) Hi, When I looked at the Archos some time ago, it looked perfect for my needs - playing multimedia files, surfing the web, driving USB devices etc. However, I found that it was slower than the 5500 that I already owned, and there are problems with way Archos have implemented Linux on it - some settings do not persist across reboots. Also, there are problems with e.g. supporting new codecs due to the sound driver and a collection of other issues that made me decide to get a dedicated multimedia player instead (the vivitar version of this). It's the usual case of the software not being implemented well. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings! |
