I brought the Archos Gmini 400 when i wanted to buy an mp3 player, i had considered almost every one (ipod mini was almost certainly going to be the one i chose) untill i stumbled up this little baby.

The Gmini can do everything the average mp3 player can do, and a whole lot more! Videos photos and games! and for less than an ipod. It has 15hours battery whilst playing mp3s and 5hours when watching video. It can be hooked up to a tv and can be played though that.

The display has vidid colours and you can choose your own background and theme (from any of your photos) The display shows all the mp3's information whilst playing and even shows the album art.

The Archos Gmini is attached via usb cable, and no installation is required, it just appears like a flash usb memory stick, making it perfect for the transfer of files to or from other (or your friends) computer.

I would recommend this great device to everyone who is in need of an mp3 player but wants something a little more, or to someone considering buying an ipod because the Gmini has way more features.

Cost? Availability? You mention adding the album art to an mp3, but I wonder how easy that is to do.

Hi, looks quite good. Would be a bit more helpful if you say how much it was and where you got it perhaps? Let me know if you edit! :) x
