Source : EngadgetAfter Philips, Archos will launch on the market an Apple TV-like box.
Based on an 80 or 250GB HD, the Archos box will feature HDMI, VGA and RCA outputs; and will be able to record TV stream, a missing feature for the Apple TV.
There is no information available concerning the interface used in this box which should hit the shelves for fall; but looking at its remote control one can imagine that it will not be as user-friendly as the Apple TV GUI.
The Archos box will cost from 200 to 300 Euros, depending on the storage capacity. It seems that Archos does want apple to capture most of the market as it did for the mobile digital media player.
