Archos TV+ 250GB

Archos' latest media player has features a plenty but does it do enough to earn Jon's approval?

But it's not the physical hardware I have a problem with. My first issue is that that the touch screen interface ported directly from the Gen 5 PMPs simply doesn't translate well to a remote controlled environment. I'm prepared to put up with foibles...

Archos - TV+

Archos is best known for its music and media players, which are among the best liked, by those not buying Apple. The TV+ box is something of a departure for the company; a media streamer and ...

Having used this good-looking box, you're left wondering why the normally sure-footed Archos has made the design and marketing errors it has with the TV+. The plug-ins should have been plugged in, the infra-red emitter on the front is daft and for...

Archos TV+ review

Is the Archos TV+ device from Archos the media-streaming and television recording solution we're all waiting for? As well as acting as a bridge between your computer and television, the Archos TV+ has input connections.
