ARCHOS Personal Media Player -- any opinions?

I’m considering purchasing the ARCHOS 605 for movies & music while traveling. I also seems like a cool device because you can access wireless internet on it. I’m curious if anyone has used this. Their experience & opinions. Specifically, how’s the internet interface? Easy to use? Can you use it all over the world—we’ll be in SE Asia? How’s the battery life? I’ve read varying reports on this aspect. Thansk much!
