The Bottom Line The Archos 605 WiFi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy. The Archos 5 boasts an improved screen size, image resolution, and sound quality over its predecessor, but its Web browser and Flash media playback are disappointing for a product marketed on the strength of its Internet media capabilities. The Archos 5 is a great video player, but it disappoints as a premium Android Internet tablet and GPS unit. The Archos 605 WiFi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy. The Cowon A3 portable video player is a fantastic value when judged on the merits of its file support and integrated video-recording capabilities. If you've got nimble fingers and an eclectic assortment of audio and video formats, the Cowon A3 should be at the top of your list.
