1. Introduction

Archos, the great specialist in multimedia on the move, is trying to stay one step ahead in the world of mobile electronics. In the case of audio products, its rivals soon caught up with it and sometimes even moved ahead, so now Archos is trying to take the definitive lead by clearly distancing itself from its competitors. That's what Archos has already attempted with the launch of its Jukebox Multimedia 20 . The externals didn't change, but the boxes innards saw upgrades. With the AV320, Archos has created an entirely new multimedia drive device.

The last two figures in the name of the product represent the storage capacity. Consequently, the AV320 has a 20Gb hard drive. It also has 300 Series features.
