[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5SrAAPLcCU[/youtube] We’ve been waiting for our friends from GenerationMP3 to post their review of Archos’s gen-5 flash player and now here it is. Unfortunately, they find the Archos 105 a little disappointing, especially with a retail price of 99 Euros or about $141. The 105 is a solidly built device with an intuitive Archos interface.

AT&T’s reported conversion on the iPhone has pretty much debunked the 500k hyped-up sales on iPhone’s first weekend. AT&T’s 146k figure, however, leaves a lot of people scratching their heads.
