Great Experience [Posted on 2008-04-02]
This is the best buy I've made since I got my Archos 605 80 GB for Christmas. I was not willing to shell out the money for the DVR station right away, so I opted to get this instead and I am more than pleased with the performance and the price. Anything is better than charging via USB - painful.

p.s. The small size caught me by surprised - well I guess the name 'mini dock' is appropriate.

I recommend this product!

Like the size, shipping was fast, with good follow up. It did not transmit video to TV so I returned for a new one. The new one was shipped fast & easy too. It did transmit video to TV, but I had to wiggle connection each time. It seems to charge Archos well. Sorta wish I had put money towards DVR dock, but that wouldn't be as travel friendly.

Fit my needs exactly [Posted on 2008-06-02]
I bought this for 2 principal reasons: first, I wanted to be able to charge my unit if I was on the road and without a laptop. The mini dock accomplishes this and more; in addition to charging without a laptop, it also charges it loads quicker than it would normally, so that's a plus. Secondly, I bought it to be able to play through external speakers on a TV (mainly for audio, but video works as well). The mini dock also accomplishes this very well. I had no need to record from a TV, so I opted not to get the full DVR dock.

I am still disappointed that Archos charges extra for extra features as charging directly from the wall and displaying images on a TV (my old Archos Gmini400 did both of these right out of the box), but I guess that's the general direction that the market is headed these days. With this in mind, the $30 that this costs is a good investment if you have no need to record from a TV source.

great product.!! [Posted on 2008-06-16]

Great Item!! [Posted on 2008-07-01]
This is a great product. If you have a Gen 5 Archos, and do not want to buy a DVR station, this item is for you. The Mini-Dock QUICKLY charges your Archos device. A really cool feature of the mini-dock is that it allows you to connect your device to your television to view movies, or play music, etc. Great buy, get it quickly!
