Hi Gienah,
The Archos players offer a few things usually not found in other MP3 players (depending on the model), such as:
• Reads many more music, photo and video formats
• Built-in Wi-Fi
• Widescreen display
• Huge hard drives (up to 160GB)
• An optional PVR docking station that lets you record TV shows, movies and sports right onto the unit
Hope that helps!
Best,
Marc Saltzman

Hi Marc,
I have a 3rd generation (8GB) iPod touch, and I was wondering if jail-breaking my iPod is a smart decision or not. Will it damage my iPod? What are the pros and cons?

I have lots of old prints and even 50 year old slides that I would like to put together in a package suitable to give as a gift to each of my children (already did it on a VCR years ago). Given the new technology available, what is the best method I can use to do this?
