Looks like the Archos 5 and 7 just got another firmware update that's finally brought a release version of the email app. That's right, update 1.2.05 is enough to bring Archos' email out of beta, and now everybody's partying with the real app, which apparently doesn't crash all the time and moves a bit faster. It looks like a pretty standard, if robust email app, and it seems like Archos has worked out most of the kinks with this latest update... or at least we hope so. We're getting pretty tired of seeing it's beautiful, touchscreened face around here.
Shure looks interesting, will be fun.
my 250 gig is that much sexier now

the way you say it, it like its something to be proud of, like catching fish
um Unsent?
yeah, if you go to send a message and then like close it, or if you write an email when you dont have any wifi to be connected to it stores in there until you become to a wifi hotspot.
What we need:
- PMP that plays most if not all the popular video formats (like 720p/1080p H264 AC3/DTS MKV container-support) so we don't have to re-encoding everything every time we want to watch something on the go
What we don't need:
- Yet another internet browsing device. There's already tons of gadgets out there that can already do this. Let it go!!
Well the Archos 5/7 have the best codec compatibility out of the current devices on the market. These things are made for media.
And what's so bad about internet browsing? It's an inevitably thing with technology, more and more things will be connected to the internet. It's just a nice thing to have in your gadget, whatever it may be.
