But the new Nano looks like a Triscuit!

--- Quote from: KharBevNor on 30 Dec 2007, 20:20 ---The 605 does closer to seventeen and a half hours audio and five and a half hours video. Also, I would like to see where you obtained those figures for ipod battery life from, as they are completely different, by a factor of over 100%, to the ones on apples own website. The 80 gig ipod, the equivalent of the particular Archos I own (though there is a 160gb model), does UP TO 20 hours on a full charge, with the disclaimer that

Which pretty much tells us that these are ideal conditions we're operating under.

Also, ipods don't support a web browser at all, except the ipod touch. The mpeg-1 firmware upgrade is only necessary for ripping DVDs, and, lets me perfectly honest: who really needs AAC support?

Oh, wait.

Did I mention, by the way, that you can plug an Archos into any computer and transfer media with asbolutely no software (except windows media player, if you're not being a fucking idiot and using a mac).

It is amazing how mad someone can become from the knowledge that their life choices are inferior!

I got my numbers from CNets reviews of both items, read them below.
See, I dont buy in to what the manufacturers tell me the battery life is, I actually go out looking for independant reviews of the products.  Because a company can say anything, like you said, battery life under IDEAL conditions.

Archos 605 at CNet
Ipod Classic at CNet

You can read them at your leisure, but I assume youll just try and discredit them in some arbitrary way.

Thats an opinon, in a thread asking for advice on how to accomplish a specific task, NOT asking for your OPINION on what MP3 player he SHOULD have.

So yes, you may not have come out and said [throw your ipod away because it sucks], but you did essentially say "LOL Y U BUY IPOD, MINE IZ SO MUCH BETR"

You don't get it, do you?  This wasn't a thread asking for your opinion on the matter, it was asking for help to accomplish a specific task.  I did have a whole bunch of text explaining WHY I would buy an iPod over anything else, but you know what?  It doesn't matter, not like you would comprehend things like "logic" and "reasoning" anyway. 

It is amazing how some people think their shit don't stink.

jimbunny:
I think you missed the point at which this thread wized up and started being funny and/or on topic.

Spinless:
Actually, I kinda do want Khar to try and discredit those guys, because I am in the market for a huge mp3 player.
Charizard was really awesome, he could kick a lot of ass. But in the second generation of games, Feraligator looked super cool.
Then there was Sceptile as the cool one. He looked like a velociraptor!
The new starters look kinda lame, but Torterra looks pretty cool I guess, I mean, when you compare it to the other two.

I already use a mac, so I guess the decision has been made, really. But still...

What I'm trying to say is...

Pokemon that look like dinosaurs are pretty awesome, which mp3 player looks most like a dinosaur? CUE THE PHOTOSHOPS!

Edit:




Not a single image of a dinosaur or dragon rocking out to an Archos yet!!!!

KharBevNor:
Statik is suggesting that apple are lying and saying their batteries last 20 hours less than some review on the internet.

Repeat, apple apparently are lying and saying their products are worse than they are.

This makes no sense!

Buy an Archos
