The Bottom Line The attractively priced Archos 404 is a PVP in an MP3 player's body. If you want a better screen and a removable battery, spend $50 more for the wider 604. The do-it-all Archos 604 with its improved design and a low base price is an amazing PVP. Just make sure to figure in the cost of some essential extras. The Archos 605 WiFi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy. The uberversatile Archos 404 camcorder is a good option for anyone looking to buy a compact portable video player with a nice screen. It's an OK convergence device, but it makes a far better video player than camcorder. As the Archos 605 WiFi's little sib, the Archos 405 holds its own as one of the best portable video players for under $200.
