Missing software

From the information I saw prior to purchase, this player would play anything that's out there. Based upon that belief I purchased one, only to discover that not only will it not play mp4 files, it even has a built in message indicating the necessity of...

A really excellent portable video player

I've had the player for a couple of weeks now and am very impressed with it. It's not so great as a music player, since the interface is awkward. It shines as a portable video player though. I have a TV capture card in my computer which records shows in M...

Good size, bad menu

The menu control is not the best, touch screen should be the way to go. The size of the devise is very good and the quality build is excellent also. I will buy this product again, but only with more storages.

Overall, a solid media player.

I bought this as a gift for my mother. She takes lots of photos of the grand kids using her Sony digital camera. And since she doesn't print them, she hardly gets the chance to see the images besides previewing on the 2" screen on the camera. Also, it doe...

Outstanding!

It's not often that a piece of electronics can be described as perfect but this is it. I purchased it and used it on a plane the next week. I had two rows of people asking to see it as they just couldn't believe it. Picture quality was suberb. I purchased...

NO RAW file support!

The following review is only interesting for photographer: The main reason for me to buy the product was to backup and store photos from my Canon to a harddisk and have a fast viewer for the photos. I shoot the photos in .jpg and .raw format....

Takes some time

I did like this little case but it's got it's down sides. I was very careful to order the right size and style for my archos but it still doesn't seem to fit quite right. it took a bit of playing around with the leather to get it to fit right and probably...

Order for your model only.

I have an Archos 504 and thought that the cases were "one model fits all", but they are not (my mistake). The 504/80 Gb is deeper than the 604 and the case is bursting and does not hold the Archos securely. Because it does not fit well, the Archos may f...

Good but not complete secure

Its a good case, but not a perfect fit with the 504. It is a bit tight in the upper side and the 504 will pop out of the case easily. You have to be careful when opening the case and raising the case lid, as the 504 may fall off. However, it does provi...

Not quite as advertised

This is a nice looking case; much better than the one that came with the unit. But it doesn't really stand very well.
