    Archos 604 Wi-Fi Ultra Slim Portable Media Player with Integrated Web Browser

    I was just wondering...how good is the web browser...does it connect via a wireless g router? or do I have to pay for service...

    what is the extent of the 604s web browser? can I watch youtube,etc?thanks!

    i think it uses an opera browser but not sure. it can connect to any wifi spot any PC will be able to.

    not sure how good the browser is at sites and ease of use but u shud read reviews on it and also note that there are new archos players out, check their site.

    yeah I've seen the 704, it's WAY too big for a portable player and such...

    and I just read there should be some kind of flash plug-in for youube and such but it's been promised for a long time and archos hasn't delivered...T_T.

    guess i'm going with the creative vision m.
