Absolutely, Archos' firmare support is nonesistant. I've had my archos for probably 8 months now, and there's been no release to sort the:
Incorrect bitrate reporting. It says everything is 128kbps. It most definitely is NOT.:) It also speeds up the timer by, say, 50% if it's playing 192kbps mp3s or whatever, if you get me.
Frequent locking up. God knows why, but it just locks up for no apparent reason. Hard reset, and it's forgotten the time...
No id3v2.x support.
Probably a hundred other things i've not noticed, or forgotten about, but none of them matter now, because http://rockbox.haxx.se are my saviours!
Firmware that does a million things the official firmware doesn't (like work properly), both new things and thing it SHOULD have done in the first place.
God, they even found space for soko-ban and tetris!

I have Archos' 20Gb FM Recorder, and i'm fairly sure that while charging, you could cook a steak on its underside, if that's any help.
