400 or 402?

Oct 19, 2005 8:42PM PDT

Hey

I want to get a new player, but I need to decide which one of these to get. The Archos Gmini 400 or the Gmini 402?

I basically all I need is to find somewhere where I can compare the two. From what I've heard, the only differences are the compact flash to usbotg and the Janus compatible.

Those two factors don't matter to me because I have a camera that uses compact flash and I never use subscription music things like napster to go or anything. I just use my own music.

Can anyone tell me some other differences?

Thanks

Wait for the 402cc to come out, which is just like the gmini 402, but with a camcorder! It has a built in camera on the back that can record up to 50 hrs of video. Plus it does everything thats its known for. Can't beat that with a baseball bat!

U know what Inspektah_Gadget says is right,wait for the GMINI 402cc.I dont thnk its cost can be much higher than GMINI402.(In the archos website, its price is listed as 350 euros,i bet when it comes out in the market it will be cheaper)
