Extrnl Monitor for Z1

[Relievo]

I've been thinking,

I have been trying to justify buying an "ARCHOS 504"

...I think I will buy one tomorrow, if you guys can answer this:

Would the ARCHOS 504 work as a nice external Monitor for a Z1????:o

What input sockets does it have?

You need the dock but here is the specs:

I will only tell you what one local ( and trusted ) dealer told me.

he won't stock archos units ....... he can't replace them fast enough .......
and i don't mean he can't keep enough stock to sell ........

well, I got me an Archos AV500, ie one of the older versions, and it stomps all over ipods etc

that said, haven't tried it for video out, since I haven't bought the portable video converter, only the one that came with the unit.

must give it a bash. Probably proprietry, though was reading on an archos forum yesterday about someone using generic camera with AV500 for a hang-glider setup, rather than buying the official cam

...interesting

I think I might get one, and see. I'll be getting it from Currys, so I'm pretty sure I could get a refund or something if it turns out to be crap?!?!
