New Archos Product – it rocks

If you haven’t heard of Archos yet then you’re missing out on the biggest improvement to entertainment since the Walkman. Ok, so they’re not as pretty as iPods and they have the same sucky battery life but an awful lot of the teething problems (like the battery life) look to have been solved with this prottype of their next machine. Details are sketchy so far but Shane’s rumours page has detailed culled from this video.

There are too many features to mention but basically it’s a pocket size hard-drive based video & audio player/recorder which will now act as a USB Host so you can connect loads of devices to it and it’ll act as a pda. Or for the same price you could buy an iPod which looks nice and plays music – your choice!
