First, I bought the 405 because I did not want to fool around with a hard drive (the 405 has a 2GB internal flash drive and an SD slot for adding memory) and I did not want to fool around with wifi. Hard drives that get moved around alot break and wifi for small devices tends to be unreliable.
That said, so far (one week) I'm very satisfied with this player. The screen (3.5") is easy to read. I use Microsoft Explorer to click-and-drag music files (whole albums and individual songs) onto the flash drive. You can sync with Windows Media Player, but it seems like an unnecessary hassle.
I understand the complaints of the other reviewers. The advertised DVR should work. But, unfortunately, the more complicated inexpensive electronics get the more likely they'll disappoint.
I also bought the mini dock...it allows you to plug the thing into the wall outlet to charge, you can hook up an external portable hard drive to hold more files, and you can patch out the picture on the screen to

Received player as a gift and I'm very happy with it. I mainly use it for my pics and some music so if there is any problems with video/recording I'm not aware of it. It works great for my purpose, perfect size for "to go", easy to use, I did not even need to read the manual. No problem at all to run update from Archos website or downloading pics and music from PC. Little bit time consuming creating folders but I had fun doing it with little keyboard that pops up on your screen. Resolution is not the best but good enough for 3.5" screen size.
Overall good value for $130.

The problem with the Archoslink software has still not been corrected. Archos advises that they know of the problem but has no idea when it will be fixed. Based on other reviews, this problem has been going on for a very long time. If you want to use the Archos 405 as a DVR it simply will not work due to the defect in the Archoslink software.
