AP Review: Archos 604 an “Impressive Performer”
The Associated Press’ Ron Harris reviewed the Archos 604-WiFi, a portable media player calling it “whip-smartâ€?. He writes about the add-on digital video recorder (DVR) docking station ($100), which lets the device connect to your TV and record shows directly onto the device.
He says the Archos 604 handles lots of audio (such as MP3, WMA, WAV and AAC) and video formats (MPEG-4, WMV, and H.264).
When he used it as a DVR (connecting it between his DirecTV box and TV), he could record the shows but that he couldn’t schedule recordings.
I was a bit flustered to learn that the only TV programming guide that synchs automatically with the unit comes from DISH Network. There’s no native support for the DirecTV guide, or TV Guide’s Web site, for example.
As a whole, Harris says the Archos really excels “[b]eing able to take television recordings on the road.” This is great for the growing number of people that are trying to watch their Tivo shows on the go. I know that I would definitely want to carry along the episode of “Lost” that I missed the night before, and watch on my commute in the morning.
So this is the second review I’ve found about the Archos 604 that seems to call it a pretty decent device. I’m definitely in the market for a portable video player, so I’ll keep looking for more reviews.

How can I establish credit again if they don’t give me a chance. I used to have excellent credit until my husband ruined that because he never worked. I’m now divorced and would like to try to get my credit back. I also have unpaid medical bills. Please advise if
