...player 'Archos Gmini XS100'. Archos have been a global leader in portable technologies since the early 1990's. If, you are not aware of Archos; I can state that everyone in the Western world has certainly used their products and technologies on a daily basis. Anyone who has been through an electronic door while on a shopping trip, or had had their credit card scanned or even used a 'touch-screen' monitor for map reading, or purchasing items, have ...

Review of Archos Gmini XS100 3 GB

I have ummed and aahed for ages over buying an MP3 player. Some are too small, some too big, all are too expensive. I wasn't taken in by the premise that I must buy an ipod because everyone else has got one, then I chanced upon this little box of tricks. It holds 3GB, which equates to 1500 songs, which means 100 albums, which is more than enough for my trips to the gym or on the train. It's simplicity itself to use, so much so that having opened ...
...to music pretty much instantly, as there are some samples already loaded on the player for that very 'I can't wait to have a go with this' feeling - oh and it was fully charged as well. There are a total of 3 buttons and an updownleftright 'wheel' thingummy, and the navigation is all pretty logical. Back home sitting in front of my 'pooter, I loaded a CD which instantly begged to be copied, or ripped for the initiated, this was using Windows Mediaplayer ...

...box and advertising on the Archos website states that a fully charged player will play for about 14 hours of music, i found this to be more like 10 or 11 hours on average, although thats still long enough for me. Some of you may requiare longer but it comes down to the individual i guess. The filetypes played on the Archos MP3 Palyer are MP3, WMA & WAV format, which is pretty much all you need, as these are by far the most popular types of digitally ...
...indepth for what the player acually does, and goes into often tedious depths to explain things which seems pointless and exhasperating at times, although the english is well written and easy to understand. Overall this player is average, its let down by the fact it is so basic, the screen size, the feel of it, the menu system, all just lack any real feel of someone has really sat and thought to improve on the industry standard, the iPod. The money ...

I love this MP3 player. Before this i had some square clumpy little thing, that i hated having to pull out of my pocket or bag as it was ugly to appear at. When i was given this for my birthday i was estatic. Its pretty, sexy, cool and sophisticated and that was just its gorgeous pink colour alone. The silver chrome button finish adds a little more glamour and with its blue lit screen it looks even sexier when i pull it out in the dark. My MP3 player ...
...contiues to grow. I can store loads of music on this little thing, so tiny yet so powerful. The main screen comprises of four options, it took me a while to understand the instructions to learn how to operate the buttons and the option as it only came with one sheet, but after a lot of experimentation i found it easy to search through my music, create playlists and arrange the music in any form i wanted. I can also delete music permantlely from the ...

this Mp3 can be your best friend or your worst enemy dependent on how many songs you put on them. after a while you will find that the MP3 will begin to go slower and sometimes even crash on you. when you purchase this item you will get a free neck strap, which will break within the 1st 3 months (not handy at all) then you have the headphones, which if they dont break within the first 3 months count yourself lucky! but this MP3 is not all bad, ive ...
