Archos would have been an appropriate option if they actually supported playback of the Ogg Vorbis file format. They are one of the few modern manufacturers that design players with capacities at or in excess of 100GB on a regular basis.

I'm not sure I would place the same premium that you place in the ability to bring it all on the road. You do go home once in a while.
If the Archos was your player of choice, fine. Otherwise, I would not think a lot about going with a smaller player. That was my point.

I do have the iRiver U10 (1GB) for truly portable: FM, movie (4:3, 15fps), and a couple of hundred ogg Vorbis files.

I small laptop? Like a Toshiba Libretto or whatever the new Sony models are? Just another idea, if you have not already considered it.

Thanks! There is Rockbox for certain Archos but not the AV500 I'm afraid.

I had looked at a couple of Archos models. They were on sale at Amazon and I was interested in the larger screen.
I read some consumer reviews. They were not all good. They did not like the quality of the dap and customer service is very poor.
I have no personal experience, but that is what I have read.
