G2 Arnova Android Tablets Coming From Archos
by Aerol Bibat on Aug 13, 2011 0 Comments">0
When you think about it, the current generation of cheap Android tablets isn’t going to last long. First, the constant pace of technology is going to make them obsolete pretty fast. Second, others are going to be delivering a better experience for pretty much the same price. That’s why it’s no surprise that we’re starting to see the second generation of these tablets. Archos has been selling their Arnova line – and last week we saw the G2 version of the company’s eight-inch tablet at the FCC. Well, it seems that isn’t where the company is stopping. We’re set to …

by Glenn Santos on Jun 25, 2011 0 Comments">0
Mobile phones aren’t the only smart ones anymore. Archos, the French consumer electronics manufacturer, has come up with a new line of home phones that run on the Android operating system. The Smart Home Phone and the Home Connect are handsets that are based on the Digitally Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard and practically function just like most of the Android mobile phones available today. Except that they’re not carried around in the pocket; they’re left on the dresser or the coffee table back at home. The Smart Home Phone can connect through any ADSL or basic phone line. Its …

Anyone looking to purchase the Archos 32, an 8GB media player running Android?

More Android based Archos tablets
by James Tromans on Apr 13, 2010 0 Comments">0
Archos CEO Henri Crohas recently announced in a press conference Archos’ intentions to release a slew of tablet based devices running Google Android. In the image to the right, a quick gander led me to believe that Archos have excellent style, branding and design continuity going on there, but it became clear that each tablet you see before you is the same image, adjusted in size to represent the different tablet screen sizes. The tablet sizes will range from 3” to 10” whereby the latter will sport 800MHz and 1GHz ARM Cortex-based chips. According to our sources, at least one …

Archos may have two new Android devices in time for CeBIT
by James Tromans on Feb 22, 2010 0 Comments">0
Carrypad.com have caught news that Archos may have two new tablet devices running Android ready to show off at CeBIT this year. The original quote is in German and translates along the lines of “Archos will introduce two brand new, good value Android Tablets that are specially designed for use in the home.” “…wird ARCHOS zwei brandneue kostengünstige Android Tablets, die speziell für den Gebrauch zu Hause designt wurden, vorstellen.” Unfortunately there were no more interesting tidbits to tie us over until CeBIT. However, reading in-between the lines would suggest that this does mean we will probably not find a …

It seems that Archos has opened up its own application store for Android devices (especially, I assume, its own). The first application to be offered there is DroidIn, a LinkedIn client for the Android platform. Only free applications are supported by the store at this point. The latest rumors have the Archos IMT device being officially launched on September 15, 2009. That’s not so far away.
