Having tried the largest Archos 101, I must admit that it seeks to Archos 70 thinner and thinner (much thinner than the Galaxy tab or the superior of Cherry Mobile) and light. I think it is just the right size for an internet tablet.

There has been a huge demand for these tablets that delays in shipments are due to lack of supply. I was told that Europe won the first shipments and drives are still in short supply. Units were initially scheduled to arrive in the Philippines in November, but it was delayed until December.

Ready for this month only available units would be 8 GB Archos 70, while 250 GB variant will be available in January. Php15, retail selling price 490 remains valid.

The appliance still runs on Android 2.1 Eclair, but should be ready for an upgrade to Froyo now (only invoiced 2.0.54 is above firmware update). While the update is available through the OTA, Archos recommends downloading the full update to a computer, and then transferred via USB update. Publish my full review of the Archos 70 soon.

Archos would a resistant screen Tablet 4.3 inches, when all other models in the range of products using capacitive screens is quite intriguing.

Placed side-by-side 4. 3? HD desire and 4. 0? Galaxy S, 43 of Archos is much higher than the two but longer than the screen is usually measured through the length of the diagonal width ended a little narrower than other Android (some principles of trigonometry at work here) smartphones.

Together with his older brothers, 43 of Archos comes with small kickstand back when playing a movie, or to view a slideshow of photos. Like pretty impressive battery life. Leave it to 7.5 hours on hold and return to it in the life of 55% battery.

The device runs on Android Eclair 2.1 out of the box, but ready for Froyo 2.2 at any time. Just do it manually.

This is for internal integrated with 16 GB of storage, but the inclusion of a microSD card slot allows you to update with a 32 GB as an option card.

Played Angry Bird on your device perfectly (actually runs very smoothly). However, since the screen is a resistant screen, not Multi-Touch and I couldn't zoom in or out of game scene.
