Archos unveils new PMPs

A technology firm has unveiled its new series of portable media players (PMP).

Manufacturer Canon has revealed information about its new line, which includes the Archos 5, Archos 5G and Archos 7.

The PMPs all have a 320GB hard drive, which is enough to hold up to 300 full-length movies according to the company.

All of the range feature a redesigned user interface and are compatible with high definition content.

The devices also have Wi-Fi connectivity which allows users to connect to the internet "anytime, anywhere".

Henri Crohas, Archos chief executive, said that the new line "redefines media on the move".

"The Internet Media Tablets not only provide true web browsing, but also let people store and enjoy their entire media collections and TV anywhere and everywhere," he added.

In a review for PC Advisor, Tim Moyniham recently described the Creative Zen X-Fi mp3 player as "an outstanding digital music player".
