The Bottom Line With its maddening interface, its missing features, and a lack of video content sources, the PMP-120 needs to go back to the drawing board. 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. Although the PMC-120 is a much better device than its Linux-based brother, the PMP-120, it's not the best Portable Media Center device available. Eight months after its announcement, the Creative Zen PMC is finally here. Despite its bulk, the player is solid, but it's the Microsoft Portable Media Center software that deserves most of the praise.
