I purchased the Archos AV320 a few weeks ago....
This product is awesome!!!!!
I have used Archos products in the past and was using the Jukebox 20 MP3 player/external harddrive for 2 years...
I was also looking for a replacement for my recently broken portable DVD player for use during business travel (I fly every week..)
I was a little skeptical about the video functions of this unit but thought I would give it a try....
I performs beautifly!!!!
You can either rip DVD's to MPEG4 or, more easily, just hook up any video source,DVD player, VHS player, etc... and record directly to the harddrive realtime!!
I have already recorded most of my DVD video collection and stored it on DVD-R discs until I want to take them with me. Then I just transfer the movies to the AV320 for viewing....
The video playback is flawless and it also looks great hooked up to a TV!
Besides being a great video player/recorder, the unit is also a great MP3 player with custom playlist functionality, optional camera module and a hell of a battery!! (I can watch 2 1/2 full movies on one charge!)
No data is lost when the battery runs out because everything is stored on the harddrive..
Hope this helps in your decision making....
P.S. I could do without either so I bought the AV320 AND the Treo 600.....!!
