Product Functions: Photo Viewer
Strengths: Nice screen, easy to navigate
Weakness: Opera web browser, downloads a little slow
The unit does everything it's advertised to do. Video playback is very good, music files sound good. Internet connections are a snap using WiFi, and it's reads PDF files. The web browser is basic, so don't think it can handle the net like explorer or firefox. You can type in URL's, save favorites, search goggle, yahoo, etc. Can handle youtube and others fine, and can do e-mail via web mail....
Strengths: Sharp and bright display. Can play Windows WMV. Big hard drive space.
Weakness: Slow internet access. Less display color saturation. Heavy and bulky. You have to pay for optional internet browser($30.00), other video files playback, DVR etc. My Archos just died after less than 3
I know anyone wanted to see if it's worth upgrading your Nokia N800 so I'm giving some short comparison: - Nokia has faster web loading than Archos. - Archos can play Windows WMV but not Nokia. - Nokia's YouTube playback is choppy as compared to Archos but Archos seems to freeze after playback. I've read Nokia is providing free OS update this Dec07 which may correct this issue(update: OS update...
Strengths: High in available features, good sound quality, video graphics and screen size excellent.
Weakness: WIFI connection slow.
While the media player is not perfect it is in my opinion the best on the market. Compared to Apple ipod touch it has so much more at a lower price. Larger hard drive, better video graphics.
THE GOOD: With top-notch video resolution, incredible viewing angles, and integrated support for wireless movie downloads, the Archos 605 WiFi is the best of its breed. THE BAD: Battery life is only average. Many users will need to shell out extra for software and hardware accessories theyll wish were included. THE BOTTOM LINE: The Archos 605 WiFi portable video player is one of the best mobile...
