From one of the
largest Dish Network dealers in the
midwest; The Dish Crew.  We
present to you, our portable Video player.
Without all the hype of the IPOD,
our ARCHOS player beats the video
IPOD--HANDS Down. We invite you to do
side-by-side comparison of the two
products. The 4-inch ARCHOS player and the
video iPod both are equipped with a 30 GB
hard drive, but that is where the
similarities end. The
4-inch ARCHOS player is a much more powerful
media recorder that eliminates the need
for multiple devices: it can store up to
15,000 songs, up to 300,000 photos or up
to 120 hours of video*. Other benefits of
or ARCHOS player include a viewing area that is
1.5 inches larger and a battery that
lasts two hours longer when watching
video.
But what is biggest
advantage to choosing ARCHOS player over the
iPod? It's the cost of the TV shows. iPod
users will have to pay about $45 to store
and watch an entire season of Desperate
Housewives®. With our ARCHOS player,
the cost to transfer content is free,
and, you don't have to wait a day to
download the broadcast. With the ability
to load content from DISH Network DVRs or
by recording the shows, ARCHOS player gives
you much more flexibility to watch and
enjoy the programming you love, and take
it with you wherever you go. ARCHOS
uses a USB port to connect with PC's or
Dish DVR models VIP 722's.
Our ARCHOS player is also able to connect with
the input/output (RCA-TYPE) Audio/Video
plugs on TV's and VCR's to transfer
content, and Digital cameras, as well. Docking Adapter to hook up Digital cameras ( via USB A / USB mini B cable) and DVR Station Gen 5 to hook up VCR's to our Archos portable video
player are sold separately. Our ARCHOS player is compatible with
Windows ME/2000/XP and Mac OS 10.2.4 or
higher. (Note: on some Windows versions
our ARCHOS player displays in the Windows
Explorer as a Removable Disk)
