    ARCHOS 605 WiFi and 705 WiFi Portable Media Players to Connect With DISH Receivers

    The Plug In is most likely a proprietary DRM format. The 622/722 may be able to display MPEG2 but that does not mean that is what you get on the Archos. MPEG2 does not support Copy Protection. For the guys who have this working plug the Archos into the PC in "Hard Disk" mode and try to play the...

    ARCHOS 605 WiFi and 705 WiFi Portable Media Players to Connect With DISH Receivers

    Betrayed by Disk I bought a 604 because I thought this would be out last year. This totally sucks!!!! Chuck you betrayed me! FYI the plug-in is DRM software so the Cinema Plug-In would not apply. So if you are only play E* content you probably dont need it. Regards,

    Archos 604 Wifi / DishNetwork Information

    Archos / DishNetwork Archos / DishNetwork have a partnership where E* will sell a new PocketDish. It will basically be the same hardware I have now but with the plugin available for playing E* content. I will most likely have to pay for that plugin, but I can see where if you buy the...

    Archos 604 Wifi / DishNetwork Information

    All: I decided I would not wait for the PocketDish to come out next year and purchased a Archos 604 WiFi (Amazon). Anyway, I hear that it would support content transfer on the 622. Today, I plugged in the Archos to the 622 and it recognized it. I was able to transfer photos from the...

    Pocketdish 500E vs Archos 500

    Sounds like lack of firmware space Sounds like the firmware can't support both due to some OS/firmware limitation (memory and such). I am afraid you might be stuck unless you wait for the PocketDish 404/504/604.

    Amazon pricing Archos 604 WiFi at $399.00

    From what I have read From what information I have gathered Archos will no longer create "partner devices", but will create plugins. So, while the hardware will be the same for the PocketDish, I am unsure if Archos will do the following: Sell the plugin for E^ for extra $$$. Archos has...
