I have to say it was everything i expected.
good quality, large storage, easy(ish) to use controls, great picture and sound and i have had no problems with it.
my only nag is it is quite large but i knew that before i got it. touch screen can be better at times
but do not be put off this is a really good product.

Good product but rubbish company.
Ever since recieving the product I have been unable to get it working.
Archos technical have been no help what so ever and after hours on technical forums that I didn't really understand I have deduced that the problem is a faulty USB lead. Again Archos were no help at all.
Time will tell is Amazon can help me out with this fault.
Too much effort required August 27, 2008

I have had my archos for some time now and find that it is not really delivering what I expected.
The picture and sound quality is good and I have used it to watch films on flights with no problems.
The web TV plug in is of very little value as the channels in the UK are a waste of time. The web radio is quite good though.
I have looked at the vizumi web site for films to download but the selction is very limited. You can buy some films that come with a portable version for the archos but I generally rent films.
It is not compatable with the tiscali TV set top box, so recording from TV is not an option.
I can also confirm the support is useless and I don't think they have ever answered a question I have sent them.
 Don't buy this... ever July 13, 2008

I bought this about 4 months ago. I have had nothing but trouble since I bought it. It wont sync properly, it only lasts about 2 hours while playing music, half the time it wouldn't turn on, files are "corrupt" and won't play. I bought the Cinema, podcast and web browser plug ins for around 55 quid or something rediculous like that and one of them didnt work! This product seems cheap but will end up costing over 100 extra for all the features (which don't work). My 2 friends that have the player have also had the same issues. My advice: steer clear of this. Buy an Ipod Touch
 Disappointing Response from Technical Support June 16, 2008

Having established myself that the Archos 605 does not support Audible Audio files (.AA format), I asked a simple question of their technical support team. My question was "are there any plans to support the Audible format?" I just got a blunt response which did not answer my question and just said that this is not supported by the unit. At the very least, they could have said "we do not have any plans at this time".
Apart from that, the product is great, and I've already got the DVR unit on order, and very tempted by the TV+ station.
It's such a shame that Archos are firstly being let down by their tech support, and secondly that they don't support the Audible format. I can live with the latter, but not being patronised by rude techies who can't be bothered to read/understand the question being asked of them.
