This may or may not be a UK-only deal, but we'll keep you scarf-wearing superfans updated. [Shiny Shiny]

First Hands-On with Archos 605 Wi-Fi CinemaNow Downloading PMP


Archos is one of those companies that is known better for its technology than its army of rabid fans. It had a hard-drive-based music player before the iPod, and it had one of the first, if not the first, portable DVRs on the market. Last year it rolled out the 4th generation portable media players, including the 604 and 704 Wi-Fi players, but they were high priced and, frankly, had a bit of a clunky interface. Today they unveil the 5th generation, with lower price, better interface, sleeker form factor and new services. It's also beefed up to handle Flash video straight from the Internet, as you'll see in the gallery. More »

Archos 704 vs. 604: In Video

The successor to the 604 Wi-Fi, the 80GB Archos 704 Wi-Fi has been caught on film. Sure, we saw some pictures about a week ago, but let's admit it, we only cared because we had nothing better. It was like an appetizer—the delicate balance of mozzarella to its deep fried bread crumb counterpart was rocking our world—until the surf & turf arrived, and we realized the congealing, neglected finger grease had found its way to not just our new shirt, but our new favorite shirt.

Latest by ZFactor: I have seen this thing. The screen is still quite rubbish. They use some really poor LCDs on these, I am talking stuff from 2004 or something. When are we going to see some crisp, large OLED PMP's? Never? Weren't more »

Archos 704 Caught in the Wild

Hot on the heels of the 604 Wi-Fi comes Archos' latest creation—the 704 Wi-Fi. Not much is known about the player, although it's rumored to have a giant 7-inch touch screen. The new handheld is also being dubbed a mobile DVR, thanks to its built-in TV tuner. Other than that there's 802.11b/g (as the name implies) and flash memory (though no word on how much). We'll keep you updated as we learn more info. – Louis Ramirez More »
