61.Archos Gmini 500 40GB MP3/4 Player from: Archos

Electronics : Archos Gmini 500 40GB MP3/4 Player
Off The Bookshelf's Price: £165.05
Prices subject to change.


On the outside this product seemed perfect for me: plently of memory, nice display screen and plenty of useful little functions as well as good reviews...

...and yes, it was good for a while. The initial reason for purchasing this was so I had all my music/photos, etc. in one easily accessible place...

...HOWEVER, I have had no end of annoying niggles with this product. In less than a month the menu button had broken and would continuously get stuck which meant I couldn't access what I needed on the player. The select button also broke which made selecting items that much harder. The player keeps freezing and the only way to get it semi-functioning again is to quite literally disable the battery as that's the only way ... Read More:

Belt loop is too small except for narrow belts. Loop is badly placed so case sticks up above belt and into your side. Open sided. No way of carrying earbuds too. Pretty much a waste of time.

Electronics : Archos TV+ Digital Video Recorder with WiFi 250GB Hard Disk Drive Capacity

Used Price: £159.99

I've had my Archos TV+ 250gb for a few months now and the unit has seen daily use. I bought it as a media player/hard disc recorder so that I could record straight from my Freeview box and play mp3's without hooking up my laptop to the hifi.

There are a few problems with the Archos TV+

1) Almost everything needs a subscription: TV guide, internet, ability to play DVD's on your computer through the wifi/network, all the games, etc...

2) The Archos is supposed to be able to change channels on your freeview box - It can't do this with my Virgin Freeview box, or my sisters Philips Digi-box. With the Virgin, you can set a program reminder on the electronic guide, which will automatically change the channel - The ... Read More:

Electronics : ARCHOS - 605 30 GB WiFi Multimedia Player
I am slightly disappointed with my new toy, I'll try and explain.

I'm a gadget freak! I buy things that I don't really need from time to time (I'm not the only one, right?).... but when I do fork out the best part of week's wage (after the plugins, docking stations etc) I get a little peeved when it doesn't live up to my expectations.

What's the problem? well, the main thing that bugs the hell out of me is Archos have upped the screen resolution on the 605 (great?!) and indeed it is a mighty nice resolution however they have somehow sacrificed colour saturation in the process. The 605 has a pretty 'washed out' look when viewing video content and there's no option to raise saturation levels either - everything I have viewed on ... Read More:

Like another reviewer I purchased this item from Avides. Delivery was pretty quick, unfortunately not all the accessories were included. No USB lead, no USB host lead and no anttena cable/carrying case. Emailed Avides and they apologised and said they would send missing items. They did, but over some period of time. Actually they were friendly to deal with and an honest mistake I can accept.

Potentially an awsome piece of kit, however mine does not record directly from a TV or Sat box like it is supposed to do. Recording direct from DVD player is not a problem. Digital Freeview aspect is fine and I have had it working in trains and cars, on the move.

Plenty of scope for keeping your music, photos too.

Perhaps I should ... Read More:

I had an Archos Gmini 400 which got squashed in transit. I almost bought the 402 because I missed it so much but for £10 more I went for this.

I have absolutely no regrets.

The first thing to say which I have not seen mentioned anywhere is that you can play the video back through the TV with a simple lead. I used the one that was included in my Gmini pack and it is almost (but not 100%) DVD quality.

Second, it is very easy to burn your DVDs (only for your own use of course) and convert them into AVI files. Then the quality is wonderful.

the sound is excellent.

I bought an i-nique case and screen protector. The case is worth the £10 spent - really good as the case it comes with is unusuable ... Read More:
