California-based Archos Technology began shipping its prtable MP3 product today. Product is the first MP3 player that also supports on-the-fly MP3 recording and has 6GB of storage space.

Player is priced $350, making it lucrative for those who have been watching Nomad Jukebox, also 6GB portable MP3 player but which doesn't have recording capabilities.
