But it does make me feel better that if I replace the wife's iPod it'll still work...

For one thing it is a way fast import so big ups on that! Plus last.fm support, which I like to see. Next month for the 605, with our vacation looming next week Management doesn't want to see our hotel money dropped on electronics, no matter how awesome. Practicality. :-| Giving gmusicbroswer a whirl. For one thing it is a way fast import so big ups on that! Plus last.fm support, which I like to see.

The 605 looks awesome. 800 x 480 in a Flash capable browser is impossible to beat right now. I think it plays music, too. gmusicbrowser has a ton of potential, but still a long way to go.

It's the closest experience to Media Jukebox I can find. I've made up my mind though...Archos 605 WiFi. Wide touch screen, browser with flash support, acts as a mass storage device, 160GB drive, movie playback, and can even read PDFs. All this things make me weak in the knees and if I can listen to tunes whilst checking Gmail? Fuck. I might just propose to the Archos engineering team.

Just saw this on Boing. We planned on buying a pair of the 80 GBs here, too. I'm trying to console myself with the constant reminder that synching w/ Rhythmbox is bug-filled as is (which prompted me to switch to the Rockbox firmware), so I'm better off with friendlier hardware. . . but, yeah, I can't support this. So frustrating. Ugh. Just saw this on Boing. We planned on buying a pair of the 80 GBs here, too.
