4 out of 5 stars Good if you live in the right country   August 13, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

I think this is a very good product with the exception of where you live or where you want to use it, for me I don't know if I will ever use it since I can't find any maps for the Middle East, another problem I faced is that I received the package missing the main cable needed to connect the Archos device to the GPS holder and now for me I have to buy another one as the cable is not sold separately Amazon refunded 20% to my account but still I am the one who lost


2 out of 5 stars No way, Jose!   August 5, 2008

Archos 605 WiFi itself is a good product, but don't expect to get a good GPS out of this In-Car Holder! I've tested quite a number of different GPS models, and want to warn you - this Archos GPS, well put it simply, sucks, and here is why:
- Can not play music while in GPS mode (which kills the whole purpose of adding GPS to a PMP player);
- Inaccurate road instructions;
- Minimal GPS functionality;
- Awkward unit-to-holder connections
- Sound from an internal speaker keeps coming out even when connected to audio output line;
- Not very user friendly GPS software;
- Need more? Get it - I am sure you will find some more ... :(


5 out of 5 stars GPS makes Archos 605 excellent PMP system   August 3, 2008
 5 out of 7 found this review helpful

I have been a big fan of Archos products --owning the 604 PMP and now the 605 wi-fi PMP. When I learned that GPS would become available I checked everyday until I saw the GPS holder for sale on AMAZON. As a PMP the 605 is superb with hi-resolution touchscreen & excellent for carrying mp3,tv shows, movies & podcasts. When I received the GPS unit I was up & running within 15 minutes. The GPS holder/bracket houses the GPS electronics,DC power & easily & firmly attaches to the windshield every time. The maps are crisp & sharp & very easy to read on the big screen. The voice commands are clear & the whole system is very accurate & intuitive. The voice commands do not give street names but tell you there will be a right turn in 500 yards and then both the voice & screen count down to the turn. I have not owned a GPS unit before but I would recommend this Archos to anyone. When you are not driving you can watch video or listen to great audio. I have a DISH satellite system & the 605 unit is fully compatible so you can do a USB transfer of several shows from the DISH DVR to the portable unit in a few minutes
