Phone guitar: iPhone OS, Windows Mobile and Android got all night to set the world right (video)
Posted on May 8, 2010 | No CommentsWhat can you do when no one's got a phone to jam with you? Why, you can be a geeky one-man band, of course! Web developer Steffest (just one name, like Sting or Madonna) managed to do just that by strapping a couple of Android devices (possibly an Archos 5 and a HTC Desire), a couple of WinMo handhelds (looks like a HP iPAQ h1940 and a HTC Touch Diamond), and an iPod touch on top of a portable speaker. All this just for a forthcoming presentation on mobile cross development -- Steffest had to painstakingly write the same audio program "in Java for Android, in C# for Windows Mobile and in Objective-C for iPhone." Oh, and it doesn't just end there -- turns out this dude can also

The Archos 5 Internet Tablet gets access to Android Market’s paid apps
Posted on April 27, 2010 | No Comments
The Archos 5 Internet Tablet just got a bit cooler. It finally has access to paid apps from the Android Market thanks to the latest firmware. This solves one of the biggest gripes we've heard about the small Android tablets. Previsously users could only download the free Android apps, not the preimum apps that cost something. This is actually a significant move in the Android tablet market, a trend we hope is followed by others.

Is Archos launching 7 Home Tablet on iPad day?
Posted on March 29, 2010 | No Comments
The iPad isn't the only upcoming slate computer. Archos has the 7 Home Tablet coming real soon as well. The 7-inch Android tablet doesn't have an official release date as of yet, but a German retailer states that it will be shipping in a week. Why the iPad launches on April 3rd? Coincidence? We think not.

The Archos 9 PC Tablet makes room for the Atom Z515 CPU
Posted on March 23, 2010 | No Comments
Isn't it grand when companies somewhat silently update their products with new hardware but keeps the previous price. That's just what Archos did with the 9 PC Tablet. Overnight it went from the Intel Atom Z510 1.1GHz CPU to the Z515 1.2GHz Atom with Hyper-Threading and Intel Burst Performance Technology. It's a nice little spec bump, actually.

Dell’s 5-inch Android MID leaks out
Posted on October 21, 2009 | No Comments
It looks like Dell’s rumored slightly-larger-than-an-iPod-touch Android MID that we heard about back in late June has finally seen the light of day.
Apparently called the Dell Streak (I hope that’s not the final product name), it's a 5-inch mobile internet device similar to the recently-released Archos 5 Internet Tablet with the added functionality of 3G wireless data connectivity.

Info about the Archos Phone Tablet emerges
Posted on September 15, 2009 | No Comments
Details are kind of lacking at this point, but so far the Archos Phone Tablet is shaping up nicely. It should rock Android on a 4.3-inch touchscreen with a 854x480 resolution, 1GHz ARM CPU, HSDPA, and will measure in at only 10mm. The strange thing is that the phone is somewhat large considering the iPhone has a 3.5-inch screen and so we're curious about how Archos is going to market this bugger.

The Archos 2 Vision doesn’t look that great in person
Posted on August 21, 2009 | No Comments
A product shot appeared a few days ago of the Archos 2 Vision. It looked nice. But the French site ArchosLounge.net recently got some face time with the upcoming PMP and, well, it doesn't look that great anymore. The original press shot looked slick and smooth, but this hands-on shot makes it looks like a no-name Chinese player. It's an Archos so it probably runs great, but I hope I'm not the only one disappointed with the design.
