Archos 705

Summary

Purchased this item and delivery was quick. Dissapointed with the picture quality and the touch screen is not user friendly. For an item of this value I would have expected better. Then I had to download and pay for 2 X plugins before it would work a real rippoff from archos! I did not need to call them but I understand they use a premium rate number and keep you holding for a while.
Lastly now I have had the unit for 1 month, it is dead!!! I have examined the unit and had to open it up to see a reset switch next to the battery connections. I pressed it in for a couple of seconds and it came back to life asking me to set up the screen by touching some x's. It is ok for now but would never touch a product made from Archos again.

How long have you used the product?
