Archos 705 WiFi (160GB) review

By (cnet.com)

The Archos 705 WiFi is a portable video player with a gigantic screen, killer audio, video, and photo format support, an attractive user interface, Flash games, wireless movie rentals, and one of the best Web browsers on a mobile device. Unlike other ...

Downloading of movies & watch on the TV with the help of the DVR (purchased separately), downloading free music from different cultures, and can get files from home pc to view on TV thru home networking.

"Review after owning for over a year."

By deus-x (cnet.com)

On paper it's fantastic and when I show it of... 

Wireless g. Decent touch screen. Screen resolution and viewing angle is good. Plays back 80% of my video collection which is pretty good in comparison to other products out there. Syncs with any program. Feature rich. Long battery life.
