The Bottom Line Much as we like the PVP4040's big screen and versatile recording capabilities, we can't get over its high price, its lack of a hard drive, and its numerous shortcomings. Archos's now classic AV420 laid the foundation for modern PVPs and PVRs. Television recordings play back fine, but viewing purchased and downloaded video is tougher.
