      Archos Gmini 500 Review

      Review summary: Finally an entry level PMP that is stable, useable and watchable, what took them so long? We've been testing the Archos Gmini 500 which gives up trying to record video and just plays it back properly.

      Archos AV500 Review

      Review summary: A classic track for a PMP with a problem staying upright, perhaps that's why all the publicity shots always show someone holding the Archos AV500? We put the DVR though it's paces and see if stacks up as a sensible purchase.

      Review summary: Archos has made the Jaguar of portable video recorders, with its new Archos AV 500. With a sleek brushed-aluminum casing, a slim profile, and a very sharp 4-inch widescreen LCD, the AV 500 is definitely set to impress. Its audio capabilities are music ...

      Pros: A/V recording and playback quality is excellent. Compact and lightweight. LCD is bright and sharp. Easy to use. Provides plenty of control. Removable battery.

      Cons: Video recording requires using the TV Docking Pod. No OGG or FLAC support. Can't watch slide shows with music playing.

      Verdict: Start saving your pennies: This portable media player/recorder is worth its high price.
