Roadmap
This is a rough indication of which features we plan/expect/hope to be
included in which versions. Naturally, this is all subject to change without
notice.
Version 1.1
Playlist support, scrolling, UI improvements
Version 1.2
Recorder support, UI improvements
Version 1.3
Resume, persistent settings, autobuild playlists, UI improvements
About the hardware
I wrote a "dissection" page some months ago,
showing the inside of the Archos and listing the main components.
I have also collected a couple of data sheets.
Also, don't miss the research notes
from my reverse-engineering the firmware.
About the software
The player has one version of the firmware burnt into flash ROM.
The first thing this version does after boot is to look for a file called
"archos.mod" in the root directory of the harddisk.
If it exists, it is loaded into RAM and started.
This is how firmware upgrades are loaded.
Dreams
Ok, forget about reality, what could we do with this?
All those simple mp3-play features we sometimes miss:
No pause between songs
Mid-song resume
Mid-playlist resume
No-scan playlists
Unlimited playlist size
Autobuild playlists (such as "all songs in this directory tree")
Auto-continue play in the next directory
Current folder and all sub-folder random play
Full disk random play
REAL random (if press back it goes to the previous song that was played)
Multi song queue (folder queue)
Faster scroll speed
Archos Recorder support. Most of the hardware is the same, but the display and some other things differ.
All kinds of cool features done from the wire remote control, including controlling your Archos from your car radio (req hw mod)
Ogg Vorbis support [unverified: the MAS is somewhat programmable, but enough?]
Support for megabass switch (req hw mod) [unverified: I just saw the DAC docs shows how to do it switchable. we need a free port pin to be able to switch]
Player control via USB [unverified]
Memory expansion? [doubtful: the current DRAM chip only has 10 address lines. we'd have to pull off one heck of a hw mod to expand that]
I agree with this post!
Why fix something that isn't broken (UUE) with something that is (yEnc) just because it saves space on the server? The increased CPU time used to decode it negates any bandwidth savings.
The Management Philosophy of the SANYO Group is "We are Committed to Becoming an Indispensable Element in the Lives of People all Over the World" and our corporate slogan is "We care for the Earth and its People." These reflect the corporate philosophy we have followed since our founding of desiring to co-exist with the global environment, world, and society.
The "Solar Ark" is a symbol of solar power generation reflecting our pursuit to realize the possibilities and dreams for clean energy. It is a message to the world from the SANYO Group aiming to co-exist with the global environment by using clean energy.
Through the "Solar Ark," with its impressive length of over 300 meters and image of embarking into the 21st Century, we are in a dynamic way communicating our message to the world. In the Solar Energy Museum "SOLAR LAB" housed in the interior of the ark, we have provided children, who bear the responsibility for future generations, with a place to develop their minds for science and ecology. Also, to commemorate the construction and launching of the Solar Ark we have established the "SANYO Environmental Fund" through which we will promote various activities for global environmental protection.
Through the Solar Ark, we are sharing our desire for "Co-existence with the global environment." Concurrently, through promoting and developing our clean energy business with solar power generation as one of its pillars, we are aiming to realize a clean energy society in the 21st Century.
* The "Solar Ark" was initially promoted as "Mega Solar." All the solar batteries used
in the "Solar Ark" were made using the solar cell modules recalled from customers due to the output problem that occurred last year. We have done this to show our sincere regret that this problem occurred, and to express our willingness and determination to both remember what happened and how important it is to maintain quality. Also, to regain customers' confidence in using SANYO Solar Batteries, we plan to effectively use this "Solar Ark" as a device to demonstrate the basic performance of the modules on a large scale for an extended period of time.

Hello everyone,
You may have seen some of my earlier posts that I wrote while in a drunken state and may be wondering why I have not posted more. Well, the main reason is the fact that I have all of a sudden incredibly difficult to get my hands on alcohol. Being under the legal age prevents me from purchasing it myself, and for various reasons my previous sources are longer able to fulfill my alcohol purchasing needs.
I beg you, fellow slashdotters, if you are in the San Jose area and would like to donate a case or even a six pack of beer (or any other kind of alcoholic beverage) to guarantee future drunken postings, please reply to this message so we can get in touch. Any help at all would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance,
I think that shit is fucking bullshit. Whoever put my shit on the Internet, I want to meet that motherf***er and beat the shit out of him, because I picture this scrawny little dickhead going 'I got Eminem's new CD! I got Eminem's new CD! I'm going to put it on the Internet.' I think that anybody who tries to make excuses for that shit is a fucking bitch.
Now why would they censor the word motherfucker and not bullshit, fucking, and bitch?
The government's job is to attempt to preserve the lives of those who are willing to risk them.
Aack! I don't know what country you live in, but here in the US the governments job is to preserve the lives of those who are not willing to risk them.

At least they don't say DeCSS.exe is a utility used by hackers to pirate DVD's and distribute them over the internet. They got the important part right, that it was designed to enable Linux users to play DVD's.
Hey man, I've put up with your shit for a while but I don't think I can take it anymore. Your a fucking retard, you know that?
Yeah, sure back in high school you pretended to be my bud, even smoked out with me a couple times. But why the hell did you have to stop coming to tha AA meetings? I needed your fucking support man. Just look at me now, I'm a fucking mess. I spend all my money on booze, and half the time I don't even know what my name is. Fuck you. I'm blaming you for all of this shit. If you had been there when me and Sarah split up none of this would have happened.

I'm not drunk, yet. Plzfx, thanks!
Wow you drive a truck!!!! That is so cool!!!! You must be big and scary!!!!
Kind of like the U.S. Supreme court, isn't it. There are safeguards in place to keep the courts from having overreaching jurisdiction in both cases.
a few large states would govern the outcome of elections, and smaller states would have no voice at all.
It wouldn't be "no voice at all", it would be a very small voice proportionate to the respective populations. Which is really what democracy is...

If you hold someone up and steal $80 from them, the cops sure as hell aren't going to just take the $80 back and call it even.
