The beauty of the Archos is it's an internet browser that'll connect and perform a simple task quicker than a laptop will boot, it's wireless meaning I can access anything on my or any other hard drive to steal films and music and it can play hd films just in case i'm going blind from watching those films.
Mort, I've got mine from fleabay from the good ol US, if it comes I'll message you the seller, at ?150 all told I think I'm on a winner...
