I just tried the new Netflix 1.4 on both my Archos 43 and my Archos 70 8gb. It works on both of them but not really all that well.

It wasn't multitasking--when the DA was running ...

Does installing SDE affect the multimedia capabilities at all on Gen8 devices (I have an A43)? Or do all the standard codecs and DRM modules stay functional, as long as you boot Android rather than Angstrom?

The wording was that the warranty is voided and that Archos is not responsible for damage caused by SDE installation. This suggested to me that damage NOT caused by SDE installation is still covered, so I queried Archos tech support for clarification.
