Everyone who owns an Archos 605 WiFi now has a $99 GPS optional accessory for it to have a very awesome GPS functionality in the car. The Archos Gen5 firmware now has reached version 2.0, and this one brings new quite awesome features such as integrated access to the worlds streaming live Web TV and Webradio channels as well as millions of episodes from hundreds of thousands of podcasts though the Web TV and Radio plugin that will be available from the beginning of May at $19, the TV+ Portation feature which basically uses the TV+ or a 605 WiFi or 705 WiFi as a Slingbox server, and there are free client softwares available on the 605 WiFi, 705 WiFi as well as Windows Mobile smartphones and Windows XP/Vista computers. Archos also has upgraded flash support to version9 with the On2 codec support, so more streaming flash video sites are now working in awesome full screen streaming.

Rémi Durand introduces Archos TV Portation

Posted by Charbax on 23rd April 2008

Archos products marketing manager Rémi Durand shows us how the new TV Portation plugin works. It enables you to stream live video from your TV, through an Archos TV+, 605 WiFi or 705 WiFi, through the Internet or on your local network, to another Archos 605 WiFi, 705 WiFi, or on any Windows Mobile smartphone (later there may also be support for Symbian) or on a laptop or PC. This is basically the Archos way to do the Slingbox, AMD Live or Sony TV Anywhere feature. You can thus take your Satellite, cable, DVB-T or any other TV channels that you own or have at your home, and then bring them with you all over the world. The TV Portation uploads the live TV feed at QVGA resolution starting at 300kbit/s, and it can go up to 1mbit/s for now if you have a fast upload connection at your home. The plugin is free with the TV+ but costs $40/€40 to install the server side of the software on an Archos 605 WiFi or 705 WiFi. The client side of the software to install on a 605 WiFi, 705 WiFi, TV+, on a Windows Mobile smartphone or on a Windows XP/Vista computer is free.
