One reader wrote in to say he's read that Archos is having trouble with their ISP changeover, which would explain the DNS and web site issues. He ordered his jukebox at expo and has it now.

I hope that's all it is, and it does seem probably, as a company folding wouldn't cause DNS errors unless they deliberately tried to wipe the domain name from their primary DNS.

Still, that doesn't explain why they're not answering the phone, but I won't give up on it just yet. Coincidentally, a whois query states that their domain name registration will expire on Jaunary 30th, so if they don't get on the ball and pay Netowrk Solutions their $35, they may lose their web iste again.
