Review summary	The attractively priced Archos 404 is a PVP in an MP3 player's body -- if you want a better screen and a removable battery, spend £80 more for the wider 604 Read full review	It's taken a relative newcomer to show the old timers how to do things right. PQI hasn't been in the mainstream long, but its P600 blows away the competiton like a nuclear bomb. Feature-wise, there's nothing more to ask for here. A few tweaks to the user-interface and PQI could just push this product from merely impressive to spectacular Read full review	It's not perfect, but the AV420 is by far the best portable video player we've seen Read full review	Measurable bulk and pricey 160GB version aside, the do-it-all Archos 504 is an awesome AV performer Read full review
