Soooo Stoked!!!

Post by soincredible01 »

I'm getting my Archos 605 any day now. I can't wait. Is there anything that is a must have item that goes along with the Archos 605? I'm totally rich so price doesn't matter :roll: :p

A good set of headphones (Search the forums for recommendations - my personal favorite is Etymotic ER6i)
A DVR station for 1. Faster charging 2. Recording 3. TV playback
A wireless router if you don't already have one.
A good case to protect it. (Search the forums for recommendations - everyone has different reasons for preferring different cases - I personally am quite happy with the Archos leather case)

If you're so rich, why did you buy an Archos? Good luck man...mine's going up for sale soon. I've had it with the volume issues and lack of support.

Yh? I just got my 605 Wednesday. Its been amazing so far, no volume issues or anything.
Maybe its just about age or newer software or something..

^^ Or maybe its these technology noobs, who buy these crappy headphones and don't have the money (or technical expertise) to realize that in-ear headphones are better and use less battery life.

Geez. If you actually took the time to read the forum before making stupid (and completely wrong) statements about others, you would find that a huge portion of 605 owners agree that the max volume is too low. It is artificially limited due to a EU regulation. This limitation affects the SNR, damages the sound quality, and can make it difficult to watch movies on airplanes or get decent levels with external audio systems. You'd also find out that Archos' support for promised functions and bug fixes is near non-existent.

Enjoy your Archos. If it works for you rich guy, more power to ya.

Didn't you notice the new line of Archos 5's out there? Much much nicer than the 605's. I loved my 605, but it pales in comparison to my new 5, and I officially sold my 605 160 gig to a guy at work today. Gave him the whole kit and kaboodle and an excellent deal.

If you own the world you can destroy it too, we are just keeping the other weaker countries in check. Don't worry, everything is fine. :-$

There are plenty of Americans like me who know our government is destroying world stability and mother earth.

Lets just stick to Archos fun and leave the little rich boy (wannabe) alone.

PS - The OP is a total grade "a" ****.

Yh, no offence, but you really need to listen to what you are saying and take a good look at your social skills. Normal guys like us tend to not get along with show offs like you.
Yh you may be rich and everything else - but what is the point in being rich if you have no friends because you piss them all off by bragging about it, and spewing out grade A shit about America owning the world and having the right to destroy it?
No one owns the world, we just get born into it, live in it and die in it, end of.
This forum is for talking about the archos, hence the name: ArchosFans.com So either talk about the archos or get lost. I think your blind ignorance has lead you to belive that people actually take in what your saying, here's the truth: - No one gives a shit. So just shut up about your richboy crap and save it for your mum and dad, maybe they care but not us.
Maybe when your megalomaniacal ideas help you to become President, we might listen to you, but until then...

O' rly?
If you guys haven't noticed I've been sarcastic this whole time, I'm the one having the laugh, its funny seeing you guys flip out. Jealousy? Yes, very much so.

Lets keep this thread focused. Do any companies sell a soft pouch that will fit the Archos 605? The one that came with the device sucks hairy noots.
