He's right. you cant. and i very much doubt archos will have another firmware update for the 605.

dont buy, download.
get firefox get Media Converter, search youtube for the song, then clcik media converter and this will download it and convert it for you. EASY.

Or go to beemp3.com for free downloads

I would like a Noreve, i-nique type of quality case, that you dont want anymore.. not bothered if its used but hopefully in good condition. thanks

hmm i might edit some of the colours and stuff.. if it was someone on here who made them i was going to ask their permission- i can upload them if you want.

very nice..
who made these?

well obviously you can watch the youtube videos directly from the archos on youtube itself without having to download them, but i really recommend a video converter on your computer if you dont get the media converter for firefox..

the lastest firmware is 2.1.04- feauturing an alarm clock.. wooo ...

I'm in UK, have a speed 6 8gb which works top notch, but i want some more space for my archos. im going on holiday soon what should i buy.. or should i wait? There are the Transcend (speed 6!!) 16gb cards for £19 and 32gb for £65 but its a bit expensive.. i know its 32 gigs which is cheap for the ...

I got my 605 about a year ago, and i got a leather case just after Christmas last year. However, i got a cheapo one off ebay for £12 which works fine, because thats what i only needed, but the stitching is terrible and the leather is actually quite loose on my archos. I should have paid a little ...

if you have firefox, and you have had many video downloaders, that download them to your desktop as .flv files, theres one i found yesterday- Called Media Converter. Search Firefox in the add-ons bit for youtube video converter, it downloads your videos, then converts it to your file of your choice ...

a year on since i brought my archos and now i see why the ipod is a better buy..
i know this is argumentative but ipods have a better interface (well you all know if you pick up an ipod your know what to do, and the ipod touch's touch screen is so much more sleek and user friendly)

but also ...

good find pepsi!
and good buy gmiddle_mass.. also get the best firmware too... then your nephew wont have to do any messing around!

no offence but god those cases are ugly..
the black and white one (colour 5 is the best)- low profile really.. but you could try some colours which are one whole colour like blue, white or black( not all together [-X )

and a stand? and a pen holder?

and maybe a size for the 30gb/4gb one aswell ...

this is not while the USB or anything is connected.. its really annoying because i know it shouldn't happen.. maybe a firmware bug for some people?

when i turn my archos off the green light stays on but the screen goes off and the archos isnt actually "on". its really annoying cause i think its draining the battery, like when i put it into sleep mode and leave it, when i come to turn it on again i see the light still on. will this drain my ...

could you find a price in british pounds please?

i think it only started a couple of hours ago when i turned it on, thats why i was mainly asking the 4gb model guys because it will be alot more recognizable... thanks for the input tho
im getting really paranoid that i can hear the buzzing all the time now grrr

this is a question for the 4gb owners mainly, have you ever heard the screen buzzing?
im only asking the 4gb ones because if you have the hard drives you can hear buzzing anyway?
ok well i got my replacement archos, updated to 2.1.04 (the latest) and it was working fine. then i turned it on this ...

im sure all new archos 605s come witht he 1.3 one.
is that link to the "official" 1.7.13 firmware? i might get that too

ok so its worth upgrading fully, but are there any bugs and is it as safe as 1.7.13? because i used to just upgrade because i thought it was best to stay up to date but there have been alot of bugs..

lol.. or flash 9?
