    5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome - a bargain at this price, buy one, 9 Oct 2006
    Does exactly what it says on the box. Large, viewable screen, excellent sound, well built and easy to use. Four devices in one;
    - a 40GB USB hard drive for backing up, storing and transferring data
    - a digital wallet for your photos..... links direct to most cameras
    - an excellent MP3 player
    - an excellent video plyer (use PocketDivXEncoder to translate files)
    Links to XP easily as a hard drive for manual files transfers, browsing etc., or use Windows MediaPlayer 10 to Synch automatically.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Archos Gmini500 review, 8 Mar 2006
    By Nicola H Sermin (Bolton, Greater Manchester United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    Well what can i say. This is a brilliant device. Cracking 4 inch screen with excellent quality. Video quality: 8/10 sound quality :7/10. It is quite heavy but it is not really a problem. The thing that really annoyed me baout this is IT DOES NOT PLAY MP4'S!!! I have tonnes of mp4s ready to put on this but it said the video format isn'taccepted. So for everything i have, i had to convert it to avi so it would play. The conversion takes quite a while, its like 10 minutes for 1 episode of friends and about half an hour for a movie, if not longer. But once you get round the fact of this, this is probably the best multimedia player you can buy. Connecting it to the tv is a dodle. Just plug in the cable and you're ready to watch. Supprisingly, the quality on the tv is surpurb, as one would have thought that it would be pixelated. The memory of 40gb is ace. Its well more then anough to keep you entertained. Putting AVI videos on its simple using windows media player, but also takes a long time to do. Putting songs on is extremely easy. Use wmp or just copy and past into the music bit. It comes with a whole load of instructions in adobe formot already on the gmini which answers every question you need to know about this. To sum up; brilliant product, superb price, cracking quality and excellent momory. Just keep in mind though, calling it an "mp4 player" would be lying.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Slainte!, 14 Nov 2006
    By D. Turner "Celtic Traveller" (Devon , UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Simply put this is the best purchase I have ever made from Amazon . The price seems high but when you consider just how much this little delight can do it seems a bargain . I bought it to take on holiday with me and it made travelling seem a breeze (6 hours on a coach to Ireland is no short trip !) . It had plenty of room to store all my TV shows as well as all my music and thanks to its excellent file transfer system all my digital camera photos as I took them . The battery life is not massive but the relatively short charge times help . If this is a major problem you can get a spare battery to take as well but I found it good enough .
