There's been another firmware over the Xmas holidays that I received. All it seems to have done is make the archos slightly more bearable in terms of general performance and use. No other noticeable change. But makes it a heck lot more bearable. Battery usage seems to have decreased. Went from 88% to 41% after a good use of WIFI powered browsing for a good 3 or more hours. Does that sound reasonable to you guys?
