Archos 70 Internet Tablet Officially Live For $279

1 Comment

As previously mentioned, Archos has slowly started to roll out its most recent Android tablets/PMPs series with new devices coming out every day, with different form factors but a similar operating system – Android Froyo that is. And while most Archos products to date have carried resistive touchscreens on board, its latest and greatest, Archos 70 tablet, is reportedly packing a 7-inch (800 x 480) capacitive display which hopefully will give you a better and a lot more friendly multitouch experience results. This $279 package offers a powerful 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 processor, along with an OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics accelerator, a front-facing VGA camera, 8GB of flash storage, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth connectivity, and microSDHC card slot. Regretfully, there’s no access to Android Market, but the French company is likely to hook you up with the AppLib store – an Android app scene of its own.

It’s been two months already since Archos officially announced a new package of products, comprised of Android-powered tablets and personal media players, and today is the day that we finally get to see some of them going live across the US market. As a matter of fact, it’s the new Archos 43 PMP that we speak about (The Archos 32 version continues to be available), which for those who are still unfamiliar with it, runs an Android 2.2 platform and packs a 4.3-inch touchscreen along a 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 processor, rear 720p camera, 16GB of storage, an HDMI output and expandable microSD slot. Sure, it also boasts a WiFi connectivity on board, but to get a chance to play with it, you’ll have to wire transfer $249.99 and not a single dime extra from your pocket.

The latest culprit, is a five-inch, 800 x 480 resistive touchscreen device, powered by a strong 667MHz Samsung ARM processor which regretfully runs the old Android 1.5 platform, but offers the ability to upgrade to Chrome OS for €20 more. Other than that, for €199 (around $245) you’ll also receive a built-in mic, a car kit package, six hours battery, an integrated speaker, 1GB of internal storage, and microSD slot expansion.
