Archos Player

Name one person who does not have a favorite television show or movie. Nearly everyone on the planet watches television and even if the news is their favorite past time they have a favorite broadcast. The problem is the world has become a busy place with little time for enjoying simple pleasures, like the latest episode of CSI. This is where an Archos player comes to the rescue.

Archos has created a line of media players that are small enough to carry with you on trips or anywhere really you have to go. They have enough built in memory to store several episodes of your favorite shows or thousands of your favorite music tracks.

The latest release Archos player is the Archos 5, which is much more than just a media player. You can now surf the web as easily from the palm of your hand as you can from your desktop pc.

4.8 inch touch screen LCD
Video support: MPEG-4, WMV, and M-JPEG; Audio support: MP3, WMA, Protected WMA, WMA pro 5.1, WAV; plug-ins available for further video and audio format support
16 million colors
Holds 300 movies, 2.5 million photos, 145,000 songs!

Pros

You can now have all of your media in the palm of your hand. Check your email in a hurry when you connect to a Wi-Fi or 3G network. You will not have to zoom in or out to see a web page as the five inch screen and 800 wide pixels allow you to surf the web the same way your would on a desktop or laptop computer.

The immense size of this Archos player means you should have no trouble fitting all your media on it. If you have more than 300 movies or 2.5 million photos that you want to take on the go, there isn’t a portable media player on the market that can help you!

With a full featured DVR dock, you can take any movie recorded on your home DVR with you. This is an option not available at this point with any other brand.

Overall, this generation Archos player has improved on any weaknesses the prior models had. Bigger screen, browser supports flash controls, and all the buttons are easier than ever to use.

Cons

If you have upgraded from any Apple product you will be disappointed that you cannot use the ITunes music or videos on the Archos player. Nor will you be able to play non-copyright protected AAC files without purchasing a separate plug in.

Overall

The Archos player is a one stop does it all personal media player. It is hard to see where the company could have added anymore function to this player. Music, movies and photos plus an internet browser in one neat little package. The price is a little high if all you need is an mp3 player; however, for a personal media player it is very competitive.
