Review summary	The Archos 605 WiFi portable video player is one of the best mobile distractions money can buy.	The iPod Classic is a refinement of the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and advanced user interface.	The iPod Touch is a beautiful product, inside and out, but prepare yourself for sticker shock.	The iPod Touch is a beautiful product, inside and out, but prepare yourself for sticker shock.	The shape may have changed, but Apple's relentless attention to detail remains. The third generation of the iPod Nano provides loads of entertainment for a down-to-earth price.
