Strictly speaking, it's much more than "just" a portable media player -- it's a full computer, just that Archos is marketing it as a media player. There might be some way to get into a command prompt, just that the Web site doesn't make that clear. It does seem that you can install some applications, the nature of which isn't clear from the site. > i predict someone will be adding the ability to shoot video with a > portable media player device. at some time these devices will let you > edit video, too -- probably using an external monitor of some kind. the > tiny playback monitor is too small to edit video on. I don't really see why that's not possible now. If you attach a Linux-supported USB camera might do the trick. The missing part of the equation is recording from that camera -- maybe with some software application that's not part of stock installation?
