"Best Archos Product I have used to date."
Pros: Easy Navigation, many options, light weight, and huge screen.
Cons: Expensive accesories, without the manual, it would be difficult to use initially.
Summary: I have owned this for a couple of weeks now. I actually purchased this item as defective on ebay for 1/3 the price, and a simple drive reformat(available without the use of a computer) fixed the problem it was having. Once I set it up so it would be like a external hard drive, it was great, although I had to look into the manual to do so. It has extremely good video playback, and the audio output playback is very good(on my shure e2c headphones). I have owned 6 archos products in the last 4 years, and this is by far the best. This is nearly the same weight as the Gmini 400 but with a screen 3x bigger and a bigger hard drive. The on-board speaker is decent, and it is good enough since most of the time, the volume level need not be higher than it goes, and if it needs to be higher you should be using headphones. It has so many options when your using it, and it allows you to access all of them by pushing no more than 3 buttons most of the time.
