Hopefully they will learn to get there shit together from this. Many people have said you cant sell a product this incomplete and expect to get new costumers when the first A5 came out and this version appears to be worse. Some people say that they need to be innovative to appease costumers and bui...

Product managers working at Microsoft, Apple, HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Sony, Nokia and other such multi-hundred billion dollar companies surely have been pissing their pants all since Archos has started to demonstrate how unbelievably superior they are to those monsters. The Innovator's dilemma is d...

Seeing the Archos 5's problems and price drop in the months after release, I think I'm going to react like liamo77 and wait a bit. I'm so scared this is going to be another big farce. I'm hoping for an Archos 9 with Aero, Multitouch and a Ôé¼500,- price point , and I'm practically sure Archos can n...

I do not know if Archos 9 would have Multi-Touch features built in or not. As per Windows 7, OS does support that. Has anybody idea about it?

arunchowdhary, I have the latest firmware and play videos off my XP PC at home with no issues. Is it possible this could be a bandwidth issues? Does it happen all the time? Do you have another computer you can use to play the videos off the laptop via the network and see if they work fine? I am usi...

I do not know if anybody else is facing the same problem, When I play my videos on Archos 5 via network (my Windows XP sp2 laptop), some time its break the video streaming and video play gets weired at last. Actually it plays well but some time randomly it breaks the video (like when you pause and p...

Yes I know we can use only Gmail which is free but here question is if I can use hotmail. I use my account for daily uses and wants to check my Hotmail emails through Archos.

Please help me to setup a Hotmail email account on my Archos 5. I know its uses HTML which is not listed here in Archos email config section, but is there any workaround to setup? I do not wants to use Web/Broser email.

Thanks!

I bought recently mine to keep update myself, since I love new features (specifically in gadgets) I had to sell my Archos 605/DVR station and everything belongs to old generation on a huge loss. All credit goes to Archos, because they can not afford smile on face of their customers, they can not upg...

My creative died. i live in india.I would like to buy an archos 5 or aigo mid.is there any company with intenational shipping and warranty.but i would like to use it mainly for internet .If someone can help please You may try : 1) Nokia N800 which is available in India easily ot any dealer/showroom...

I got mine yesterday. Here is my problems: It took 3 crashes to configure the WiFi. Then Configuring email crashed 2 times. Opening Email locks up or crashes the Archos, still I am not able to open emails on it. Another problem, when I changed background/Wallpaper image (copied 2 new moving wallpape...

That's it?

Thanks anyway!

I just wanted buy new Archos player. So wants to know what exactly differences between Archos 605 and Archos 5 IMT. As far as I know both has same feature except new look and new Interface on Archos 5. Could somebody give me more details about other enhancements on Archos 5, so that I can justify my...

To simply say "same as point 4" diminishes the fact that the N800 CANNOT do these things and are thus features that the A605 provides by default (or with the purchase of accessories/plugins) where the N800 may POSSIBLY support in the future. Not to mention, planning for "what may be available" is u...

N800 might be open, but the kind of things you can program for it are very limited, cause Nokia limits you to use the ARM part of the Texas Instruments chip. Everything that has to do with multimedia is on a DSP chip, nobody not even Nokia can use the DSP to accelerate multimedia applications on th...

1. Archos is actually portable and can be carried in a pocket so the N8x0 could be. 2. Archos comes up to 160 gb hdd but also has a flash model. I have already mentioned about it. 3. Archos can record video or audio or both with DVR. N800 could record Audio using mic. This point was also taken care ...

I don't believe that the N800 plays the same video formats, resolutions, bitrates, nor the same flash video such as Youtube. Search for N800 if you want to read more reasons why Archos is better for Multimedia, video and that sort of thing. The Nokia N800 and N810 aren't bad, and if they had built ...

Yes, you are right. There are lots of tablets available on Maemor.org which is open source but Archos does not provide any application support. Even they have released the SDK but I have not seen any major outcome yet. I hope Archos would come up with something interesting as Nokia.

IF this deivce ha a 80gb hdd, and supported mpeg, could record from the tv, and usb host, forthe same siz this product would be great! It has few things which you were interested I guess: 1) USB Host, there is an application for OS2008 which can bridge not only Pen Drive, Flash card reader but also...
