Re: I still really like my Archos 70 - do you?

On friday it will be a year exactly that I have had mine. I have used it almost every day and in all that time it has only crashed once. i have never updated the firmware as it did everything I wanted out of the box and if it ain't broke why fix it. the only reason that I would even consider ...

Re: Archos 70 cannot handle 200GB of music

Thanks


Finally, I've seen the comment on "Who needs that much, that many", all over the internet. I can appreciate the inability to understand the need for having so many mp3's on one device, so here's my answer to those of you who do NOT have the need: Imagine if you will, that you are in the ...

Re: Archos 70 is superb - tips I wish I'd had to start with

....and thank you for that brilliant review.
Although I realize that there are many more A70 users happy with their devices we will never hear from them because of just that, they are happy with their device and hence do not need to come to a forum looking for help or to vent. So once again, thanks ...

Although the screen is better on the Ipad, if given the chance to swap for a brand new Ipad I would not take it.

Re: Ice Cream Sandwich

Who buys a PC/tablet for its operating system? If it does what I want, I couldn't care less what OS it has. I mean who thinks Vista was an 'upgrade'? If it works leave alone, unless a new OS offers something you need .

Re: archos 10 keeps freezing

If after trying everything return it still does not work return it for a refund. It should not be doing this right out of the box and is definitely a fault

Re: have to part ways with archos

What I have discovered is that one's experience with these devices definitely colors ones opinion. I can say this as I have been on both sides of the fence. For me the 5IT was the worst archos experience that I had ever had. I actually canme close to throwing it across the room on one occasion ...

10 Months On & still working brilliantly with NO problems

As the title states this is a topic for all those who are enjoying their A70s without any problems or faults to speak of.

Re: It was worth the wait. Full HD Archos Gen 9 Androids is

I'm an hd snob when it comes to my TV and blu Ray player, home theater etc, but on a 10 inch tablet? Heck even dvd quality makes me happy on the Archos LOL

Re: Gen9 10" Vs. 8" Which One Are You Getting?

Unless the new devices offer the codec support of Archos I will remain a fanboy!! Oh and in regards to which one I shall purchase? definitely the 10.1. While reading comics on the 70IT was ok it was also hard work having to constantly zoom in to ensure that I could see the words. on a ten inch ...

Re: Are the 70's just riddled with issues/bugs?

Apologies if you are already aware of this but please make sure that the one at best buy is the 70 internet tablet not the 70 Home version. The only reason why I bring this up is that the best buy price of £75 seems waaaaay too cheap for this The A70 internet tablet.

Re: Are the 70's just riddled with issues/bugs?

Sadly I think it is the luck of the draw. I too have had a flawless device, however I had the 5IT and I was at the point of throwing it through the window due to all the issues I encountered. Sadly it never did work but it was to late to return. I would advise returning it if still within the 28 day ...

Hi there

I love my A70 to bits. I have never upgraded from the firmware that it came with and have never regretted that decision. Since I bought it in december i have had just one crash and it does almost everything that I want it to do. When it sleeps it wakes up without any problems even after a few days ...
