2008's top three PMPs

| It's taken a long time for anyone to successfully combine a good video player
| and a good internet tablet, but Archos has cracked it. Solid as a rock, and
| with superb video playback and a decent web browser - Opera - all plonked on
| top of a stable Linux OS with a faultless GUI. Better than the iPod Touch? We
| think so by dint of its larger and higher resolution screen and much higher
| storage capacity. If a 5in screen is too small, go for the 5's big brother,
| the 7.

Archos 605 WiFi Linux hack

,----[ Quote ]
| Personally, I think the Archos 605 WiFi is a cool enough gadget on its own,
| but there's always something to be said for hacking a gadget just to explore
| the possibilities.

| Archos 604 PMP for a whirl, and we surely gave it one. This 30 GB PMP is the
| fourth generation video product from Archos, one of the biggest names in that
| market.

Archos 705 "Mobile DVR" with WiFi unveiled, thanks FCC

,----[ Quote ]
| Very little is known about the functionality so far, but that whole
| "Mobile DVR" tag on the name could imply that Archos is packing a
| bit more TV-centric functionality into the device -- rumors have
| mentioned the possibility of a built-in TV tuner -- or perhaps just
| trying to position the same old, same old a tad bit better in the market.
