Archos 604 vs. 605 30 GB

by ManxTwo Oct 9, 2007 10:36AM PDT

Ok, so I've asked about the 605 vs. 705, and I realize the 7" is too big for me. Is it worth the extra $50 for the 605? I would get the 30GB WiFi in either case.

What do I get for my $50?

And I know I need to shell out additional money for the browser, the power adaptor, and the DVR, as well as cables to attach to watch on a monitor or TV.

The 604WiFi goes for around $250 while the 605WiFi 30GB can be found for as low as $280
but I said before, you can get it for $240 if you have a myspace account by Nov 20th (special discount)

There a few differences to look at between the players
and 605 is thinner and lighter than the 604
the 604 resolution is WQVGA (480x272) and the 605 is WVGA (800x480)
the 604 comes with Opera for free while the 605 you have to play $30 for Opera (and Adobe Flash)
and because the 605 has Flash it can play videos from like YouTube and c|netTV while the 604 can't
the 605 also has "Content Portals" so you can buy or rent movies through WiFi directly
