Archos 704 WiFi Review - PC Authority

Archos-704-WiFi-PC-Authority.jpg

A review of the Archos 704 WiFi portable media player has been posted over at PC Authority. 'Archos has produced some fascinating products of late, such as the 404 Camcorder, and the Archos 604 WiFi. But with its 7in, 800 x 480 touchscreen, 40GB hard disk and Unix-based operating system, the 704 WiFi is edging into the territory of UMPCs like Sony’s UX27GN. It isn’t as versatile though: the operating system, although Unix-based, is locked down. So while there might be an enthusiastic community awaiting such products, it’s unlikely that there’ll be much third-party software for the 704, in spite of it being a t choice for applications like GPS. It’s also not a device you’ll get much creative work done on – there’s a PDF reader but no way to open Microsoft Word documents, for instance.'
