Comments about Archos DVR Station:
I had the Archos 7 as a present and I bought the DVR for it. The DVR is very easy to set up and it's great to use with the TV big screen. I used it for playing music on my stereo system and watching videos on my TV.
The Archos is with Flash player 9 but the web movies I want to watch with FP 10. I read from the web that Archos is working to have FP 10, which I'm looking forward to very much.

Comments about Archos DVR Station:
This product offers a lot more possibilties than the previous 604 docking station version. Supporting now input and output of s-video and component video. They also added hdmi input on this unit. As for me powersupplies are oversized especially when you want to plug more than one unit on a single power bar. The archos doesnt fit tightly in the slot normally it would not be a problem but with fully touch screen archos 5 its a a mess. Luckily the unit comes with a great full key remote to type in text field and move with a mouse-like cursor.

The product works as advertised. Unfortuneately was originally purchased to work the archos 7 internet tablet. NOTE: They are not compatible. Had return the 7 and order the Archos 5. Works well with that. connectors seem a bit flimsy. Time will tell
