Oh, you mean Archos 32 with 3.2 inch touch screen? I thought it's Archos 5 IT with 32GB flash disk.
Sorry for the misunderstanding, mate. Mine is 5 IT with 500GB. It all worked okay for ~30 minutes of influent playback, then suddenly stopped with no visible reason as the "play" sign was still shown on WPS, but elapsed time is frozen. Again, only FF and ReW will revive the playback to normal. And it runs Android 1.6. I guess yours running 2.x isn't it?

Correct, mine is the new Archos 32 with Android 2.1. I'm going to attempt to compile one for the 101 as well, whenever mine shows up. I think that might be problematic due to the larger screen, but we will see.

Really? Wow, you must be pretty brave, as you may need a 1024X600 template. And an SDK for 2.2 version... ;)
How do you use your Archos with RB mostly? Connected to AC outlet/PC or running battery? I found out that when I connect mine to PC it plays non-stop (or it suddenly stops less often, not sure, still a misery to me). However, this solution requires a computer (with USB cable) around and is not 100% verified...

The gen8 Archos devices are still 2.1, at the moment. I've been using it on my 32 for the last 2 days and I love it. It's not perfect but it's "good enough" for the time being.
On my 32, I have a task manager apk so I just kill the app when I'm done with it. Probably the worst issue right now is the FF requirement to get it jump-started, but again I can live with it for the awesome EQ. I try to use it on battery most of the time, as it made to be portable.

It appears that playback can be revived not only by FF\Rew, but also when changing themes (as well as pressing the current one), even the base skin is enough. Now I have another question to you: When your Archos runs on battery, can it play music from RB if you turn off the display, or it'll enter "Sleep mode" and stop the music shortly after?
