archos 604 for reading pdfs?

Can anyone comment on it's ability on reading pdfs please?

I'm not too much into the whole videos thing, and would like to do some basic reading/catching up on some work documents etc during journeys.

The review for the Archos 604 on http://www.pocket-lint.com/reviews/r...ayer-pvr.phtml
sounds alright, but that's from a while ago and i want to know from real users if there are any known issues etc.
a) What would you say about this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...:X:AAQ:US:1123
<100$ in all.

What is it like? Can it read 30-40mb pdfs without lag/crashing? Is it better than the itouch (battery time, durability etc)? if not, should i go for a 1st gen itouch - can it do the job?

itouch (what i heard/think):
- battery time
- too much stuff i don't need

archos (what i liked):
+ voice recorder
+ 30 gb

I did a basic search and couldn't find much on the Archos so posting a new thread, please move or merge as necessary if this has already been covered/addressed . Thank you!
