With the Archos in hand, for the first time you can download favorite movies, TV shows, and music wherever you are, without being tied to the PC or Mac.

By using the player, you can view and post YouTube videos wherever you are with an active wireless connection. In addition to downloading media straight from the Archos content portal, you can stream and watch videos from your home PC or laptop. For added video playback versatility, the player is compatible with MPEG4, AVI, and WMV video files. The player features robust music playback features, too. On-board music file playback capabilities support MP3, CBR, VBR, WMA, protected WMA, and WAV files.p To help round out the player's multimedia superiority, the Archos even comes with photo viewing capabilities. JPEG, BMP, and PNG files are 100 percent compatible with the player, and the player can pull up PDFs for portable review -- an ideal means to take bigger documents or e-books in PDF format on the road with you. Because of the Archos's USB 2.0 compatibility, files can be quickly transferred to the device in the absence of a Wi-Fi network connection. Charging the device can also be accomplished with an active USB connection. An AC adapter is sold separately for additional charging options. Other great features include mass storage capabilities, automatic firmware downloads, and a 3.5-millimeter headphone jack. With an advanced Li-Poly battery, the player supports up to 17 hours of continuous music playback and 5.5 hours of continuous video playback. Weighing in at a scant 9.17 ounces, the Archos generation 5 605 measures 4.8 by 3.2 by 0.6 inches.p br table width="2000" cellpadding="10" align="left" tr td align="left"img src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/cat-1000/archos/ArchosWidgets_1.jpg" border="0" psmallbiNew widgets for the Archos 605 include a calculator, currency converter, unit converter, news, and weather (above) as well as a note writer and data vault (below)./i/b/small /td /tr tr td align="left"img src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/cat-1000/archos/ArchosWidgets_2.jpg" border="0" /td /tr /table br bNew Free Widget Pack/bbr Archos has launched a new widget pack that is free for the 605.

 Great for showing art to galleries November 23, 2008
Thomas H. Repasky
I bought this as a tool for showing my art and animations to galleries and dealers. It is wonderful and sure is better than a paper based portfolio.
 The best PMP in the market! November 22, 2008
J. Espinosa (Dallas, Tx)
I've had my Archos 605 for two years now and its the best portable electronic gagdet I've ever bought. Surf the net, download movies, show, music, pictures, or your own video in any format. Never have to worry about compatibility. Also, purchase the DVR you will be able to watch your stored movies on the big screen as well as recording your favorite shows and taking them on the road.
