605 WIFI Archos Media Player

605 wifi archos

You have mp3 players and then you have media players. You may think there is not much difference between the two; however, there is a considerable difference in options.

Mp3 players are good at basically one thing, playing music. That is great if that is all you want from your player but if you like a little more bang for the buck a personal media player like the 605 wifi Archos will give it to you.

Features

Stream video from pc or internet to the television, wirelessly
Record favorite TV shows
160 GB hard drive
4 inch color touch screen

Pros

Not enough can be said about the image quality of the 605-wifi Archos media player. This player is an easily favorite among customers and critics alike for the beautiful display.

Compatibility is another factor that puts the 605 wifi Archos over the top especially next to its closest competitor the IPod Touch. Apple has tied their line of products to ITunes and while this is a nice application customers are happier when they can shop around for content. The 605 wifi Archos can handle nearly any video or music format you can throw at it without bulky conversions.

Dish network has a handy plug in for the 605-wifi Archos media player that allows you to transfer movies that you have DVR recorded to your portable player. Now take your favorite movie or television show with you to the park or anywhere else.

Price point for the 605-wifi Archos media player is well below the competition. At last look, you could purchase the 160 GB Archos for the same money as the 16 GB IPod that is a no brainer! More storage for a lower price, especially at sites like Amazon or TigerDirect.

Cons

The one area that could use some work with the 605 wifi Archos is battery life. All these great features on a six-hour battery, leaves you a little frustrated. However, with the monetary savings you could invest in an extended battery pack.

The size of this player receives mixed reviews for some it is James Bond type gadgetry and for others it is bulky. This one kind of falls more on personal taste than an actual pro or con, one thing is certain it is not pocket size.

No USB connectivity, again for many this is not a problem at all especially with the wifi connectivity, but many felt it would have been a nice feature for charging purposes.

Overall

When compared to other top models the 605 wifi Archos is a force to be reckoned with. Great picture quality and many neat extras plus a nice price point will leave this one ahead of the game for some time.
