My Opinion
I purchased my Archos 605 from E-Bay just before christmas and really couldn't be happier with it although it only has a 4gb memory capacity it can be upgraded via an SD memory card it is really easy to use and customise and is compatible with near enough all of the files i have tried playing on it and plug-ins are available for all the files it doesn't play. The WiFi connection is a little slow but is still really usefull as it allows you to download or stream files from almost anywhere however you do need to download the web browser plugin from Archos's website to do this. The screen is a good size for watching films on and is really high quality also the addition of a stand was a great idea as it means that you dont have to hold onto it for an hour ...
Advantages: Record from TV/DVD, Excellent for watching movies, has many features Disadvantages: Expensive upgrades, poor inbuilt speaker, limited for gamers
The Archos 605 WiFi has many features such as the option to record from the television, to surf the internet, it even has the ability to be used as a GPS. One downside is a lot of these features require additional money to be spent.
If you're a gamer then you might be a little disappointed by the fact that the with the Archos 605 you will be limited to only playing flash games. The Archos 605 basically just isn't a gaming device. If gaming is your main focus then you would be better off with a sony PSP or the GP2X.
You can also store/view pictures, which is a pretty ordinary feature on such a device but still appreciated.
The touchscreen though not completely necessary in most cases does seem to work pretty well.
One thing I did notice about the Archos 605 is that the sound quality of the inbuilt speaker is pretty poor ...
Advantages: fantastic media features Disadvantages: requires daily wipe due to fingerprints
