Here are a few things you may want to include in your product review: This is the second Archos 5IT I've bought, the second one because i destroyed the first and it wasn't insured, doh! The first one cost me £150 approx the second £55! Where can you find a 5" 160 GB bluetooth, wifi, GPS, (which will work with Google maps), mp3, video and apps player for this price? Nowhere, I've looked high and low. Now I have two i can use one for spares so i am very happy. It's on Android 1.6 which is disappointing well no actually it's not, it'll do everything you want it to do (and there is a 3/4 working hack (Cyanogenmod) which will take you to Gingerbread but because it's not fully working it is a little buggy)). Battery life is very good and video quality is excellant. There isn't much I don't dislike about it and whatever there is it's still an excellant all round PMP. Buy it or it's newer counterpart and you won't be disappointed!!!!Read full review
When I got the Archos 5 I was impressed with the packaging and it presented itself very well. Opened the pack to reveal a nice shiny piece of kit. One thing I will say about Archos is that their items are great quality and this did not disappoint. Hard drive was easy to set up and having 160gb is awesome for my personal music collection of lossless audio. MP3 playback was a little touch and go but when I loaded winamp it was fine. The standard audio player plays FLAC audio instantly and in perfect quality. This is truly a great audiophile storage device. Few little niggles were there is no android market as it's OS was 1.6 which is old and dorky now. Battery was a little touch and go with the time it played back. I don't like how you need to clean it often too as it does get grubby from your oils in your skin. All in all its a nice bit of kit for the ones who don't like MP3 but love FLAC or other lossless codecs.Read full review
We use this to listen to audiobooks. It has a large memory so it never runs out.

I think this Archos 5 is brilliant the battery drains a bit faster than normal, it's not a problem it's due to the age of the tablet. I am well pleased with it

This is my 6th archos from all generations and another improvement, i use to record music video and movies, cracking size not to big like a tablet and not to small but excellent video quality. Forgot the last time i bought a cd, use in the car on the plane around the pool wifi android is usfull for the net along with bluetooth. Not used the gps but heard good reviews. 160 g is big enough beat that apple plus plays a wide range of vid formats. Only downside is u really need a dvr station to get the best from it. Bat life around 5 hours using video
