Man, that thing is pretty cool, even if it is ugly as hell. Had a not so different device back in the day, from Creative, I think.
The Hiby R1 is pretty great. It has one annoying quirk, though: it has no button lock. But you can deactivate waking up the touch screen and I never had a button pressed by my pocket by accident. So there is that.
Thanks for the info about the r1.
Ill try to use the archos now daily, and if its too annoying i will buy something new.
Flac is also a big point
