RE: archos USB cable?
Hi Nick, First, there's no reason why you couldn't move the files to the hard drive after you've recorded them. I don't however know if the recorder has only a mice or whether it also has line-in recording. Assuming it does have line-in recording, then you should be away. You could feed the revox, (lucky ard, straight to the archos and record your blues programme straight onto it. However you'd struggle with the timed recording bit, but I'm sure you realised that.

RE: archos usb cable?
Hi. You said I believe what you do, is to load the firmware update, whether rockbox or not, into the player, and then "run" it using the archos's internal memories. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm still trying to get hold of a unit that will take the rockbox software. Not quite. This is doable (it's called flashing the firmware), but usually, what happens is that the firmware already in ROM checks the HD for a file with a certain name. If the file exists, the firmware in that file is loaded. If not, the firmware in ROM is used.

Hi. The firmware is read from ROM inside the unit, and only later is any new firmware loaded from the drive. The new drive would spin up, you could put Rockbox on the drive, and it would work from there.

RE: archos usb cable?
Hi. Yes, upgrading the HD can be done. See http://www.mctubster.com/hd.html That page is about the AJB 6000, but the principles apply to most of the units. The controller should support up to 128 GB, which isn't available in laptop drives at the moment, anyway. Note that the drive must be formatted in FAT32 before it's installed.

Keep in mind, though, that a machine that has been banged up will not necessarily last much longer in your hands if it's already been used for a while. The main problem with Archos units is not durability so much as quality control from the factory. Were I you, I'd ask the age of the unit and make sure buyer protection is offered on the unit. Units that are sold "as is" should probably be avoided. BTW, when you get the unit, run a scandisk and see if there are any bad sectors on the drive. I've seen units which seemed to work but with their drives so riddled with bad sectors that if you try to put more than a few hundred meg on them, they won't read. Note also that you can replace the drive, but this, of course, requires buying a new laptop drive. As for any unit with rockbox, it probably won't talk, since the voice UI functionality has not yet been officially released. You'll have to install the voice, which isn't at all difficult.

RE: archos usb cable?
Hi. First, Rockbox will work on this unit if it is as you describe it. Secondly, you can get an USB cable for the unit from RadioShack. All you need is an A male to A male USB cable. That is, the large flat rectangular plug to the large flat rectangular plug. In most cases, you need a cable that has a flat rectangular plug at one end and a squarish plug at the other. However, in the case of the Archos (excluding the Recorder V2 and FM recorder, they use mini A cables), you'll need a cable that has the same type of plug at both ends, and that plug is rectangular, large, and flat.
