Not the greatest........2007-02-19

The remote is good if you're not planning any major stuff. What happens to me is that, like the other reviewers, there is a bit of static and an annoying sound that comes along with it. The connection is not always that great but it is long and can, in conjunction with the headphones, work really well if you want to record from the radio. On mine, it freezes after a while and the unit has to be turned off and then on again. Which can be a pain. But the mic feature works brilliantly so can't complain in that area.

Good product, But Mine was also defective.......2005-04-18

Good add on, radio could have been built into Gmini as standard feature though. When i recieved my radio, it was also faulty, loose connection, static in right earphone, and loud clicking noise when cable was moved. Archos would not exchange it as I bought it off amazon's website (waiting to see if amazon will exchange it)!

Had read reviews of Archos's bad build quality, but bought it any way, No problems with Gmini 400 so far (after 2 weeks!), but radio was broken when i took it out of the box and Archos refused to exchange it!
Buyer beware!!

I feel betrayed..........2005-04-04

About the remote control I can't complain... it looks great, the bad thing it that i couldn't use it! because it isn't compatible with my Archos Gmini XS 200 MP3 player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe it! Amazon said that it IS COMPATIBLE, BUT DON'T TRUST THEM!

Just a note.......2005-02-12

This item is not compatible with the GMini XS200, Archos' site mentions this in their product listing but Amazon seems to have missed it.

Good product.......2004-12-10

I have a Gmini 400 (Which is a great product by itself) I decided to purchase this as a little add on and...
it is great! easy controls once you get used to it. I enjoy being able to leave my player in my pocket and still scroll through all of my music files.
The radio is a little sensitive since your headphone cord is the antena but still a cool add on (you can record off the radio with a simple click)
I love this product and recomend Archos products!
