It seems to have lots of inputs especially the component input which could provide very nice quality recordings (HD?) of component sources and all the outputs including the HDMI (I wonder if Archos has HDMI certification yet or can get it quickly enough to release soon) are there. Awesome!

I will write up soon my wish list of features that I hope Archos is working to include with the Archos TV+ and the whole 5G WiFi generation.

Check out this awesome Flash Video detection feature:

This is the first time I have seen any device handle Flash Video this way, not even a PC or Mac can handle Flash video this way as far as I know, effectively zooming in on the Flash video to display it full screen.

This is an amazing interface work they have done, this seems to be the Archos Content Portal kind of interface design also, so you can access millions of videos this way directly over WiFi, the Dailymotion interface providing access to streaming Flash video in full screen:

HD 720p video supported!!!!!

199$ for 605 WiFi with 4GB flash memory and SD card slot. Also called 605 F (Flash).
299$ for 605 WiFi 30GB version. Also called 605 S (Slim).
399$ for 605 WiFi 160GB version. Also called 605 H (High Capacity).

220$-300$ for the Archos TV+ with 80-250GB 3.5″ HDD, WiFi+Ethernet+HDMI.

Your Archos TV+ records TV (DVB Satellite/DVB-T/TNT or analog), it downloads your shows like Podcasts or VOD on-demand (RSS) then you simply put your pocket-sized 605 WiFi on the dock to synch up content from Archos TV+ to your portable Archos 605 WiFi, as well as it could synch up wirelessly over the Internet or over your local network. As well as 605 WiFi can record and download all the content autonomously.

If you don’t want to have an autonomous Archos TV+ Internet connected VOD DVR, there is also the 80$ normal DVR:

This remote with integrated keyboard is awesome to use for Youtube, Dailymotion, VOD, Podcast download client or to rename recordings directly on the TV. I hope we can also use a small portable foldable keyboard usb while on-the-go.

The design of the 405 is awesome and at 150$ retail price it will sell lots:

The ACP is presented as a specially-designed Website for best viewing on PMP and TV:
