4 out of 5 stars nice player   May 15, 2007
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I have had a very good experience with the playback on this player. The sound quality goes down when you use headphones that adjust volume on the cable, so I would recommend using headphones that don't. Only issue I have is that the 700 uses a different size power cable than every other model and I could not find a replacement on the archos website (which isn't the easiest to navigate) and calling on the phone wasn't very effective either... I guess the company is geared to the advanced users, but geeks lose power cables too right?



5 out of 5 stars This is quite a gadget!   January 31, 2007
I have had my Archos av700 (40gb)for 6 months now. The good news is this is a fantastic machine! I am not a computer expert by any means. You can do everything it says you can in the description of the product. It plays great and is easy to use. There are only two negative things I have to say about it. First of all, the user manual is terrible. I had to figure out most of this stuff on my own. It will tell you how to set it up and use it, how to connect it to the TV, how to record, etc...but it won't tell you how to move the files and folders around in the machine. The other thing is the picture is not exactly the same as the picture quality of the actual photo...the same with the video quality. If I had to rate the picture quality out of ten it would get an 8 (which is not bad but I know eventually it will be perfect). Otherwise this is a great product and has served me well!


5 out of 5 stars AV700 Beats a Laptop or Portable DVD Player   January 24, 2007
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I have used a laptop and portible dvd player to view videos and prefer my AV700 to both hands down. The unit is about the size of a paperback book. It turns on in seconds. The screen in no different from the LCD on a laptop or dvd player. For convience, it is unmatched. On a Windows computer with XP, the unit is recognized as an extra hard drive making it easy to drag and drop video and music files. During playback of a movie, you can easily "mark" where you stop and the unit can return to that point when you it turn back on. I keep about 30 movies on it at any one time and still have room to spare. The unit works seamlessly with Amazon's video download service. When transferring a file, Windows will tell you if the file is not compatible with the unit and refer you to Windows Media Player, which will convert and download files for you. All in all, using this is a "no brainer". It's easily the best gift I've received in years.

This is a great unit. Got it to record movies for the kids. Replace portable dvd units that last usually less than a year. Great product. Only bad thing is battery does not last as long as I would like for it but I no worse than anything else in this size.
