1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, August 18, 2005

This review is from: Archos Gmini XS 100 3 GB Pocket Music Player (Pink) (Electronics)
I didn't want an ipod because I think it looks boring and when I saw the archos gmini xs 100 I thought it looked fun. Unfortunately, it's crashed twice and this time the hard drive has completely stopped working. Tech support takes forever to respond. I've since learned that many people have similiar problems with Archos. Do yourself a favor and just buy the ipod.

4.0 out of 5 stars No problems funky little MP3, July 2, 2006
By 
This review is from: Archos Gmini XS 100 3 GB Pocket Music Player (Pink) (Electronics)
I found the Archos Gmini to be a brilliant little MP3. I, like most people wanted an IPOD, but it was just far too expensive and I had heard that some models had glitches.

I have not had a single problem with my Archos MP3 and it is the easiest product I have ever used. Basically to transfer songs all I have to do is click and drop into the music file. Its so easy to use, my mum liked it so much that she got one aswell.

In the time I've had it, the screen has only froze once but that was when I was charging it through my laptop while listening to music and then decided to turn it off.....trying to do too many things at once.

If you're looking for something relatively cheap, easy to use and funky, this is definately worth buying. I got the pink one and everyone comments on how small and funky it is.
