Archos releases developer edition firmware for Internet Tablets

,----[ Quote ]
| Based on the Angstrom Linux distribution,
| this is by no means a commercial distro (no
| multimedia software) but since you're taking
| it upon yourself to code the next great
| multimedia / social networking / productivity
| / time travel app anyways, you don't really
| want to be bogged down by such pedestrian
| fare.

Archos 5 & Archos 7 Tablets Get New Developer Firmware [Archos
Releases Special Developer Edition Firmware for Its Internet Media Tablets]

,----[ Quote ]
| The new special edition firmware is available
| as a âproof-of-conceptâ according to the
| press release and it âdoes not contain the
| traditional Archos multimedia software.â
| Developers interested in building native
| applications for the Archost 5 and Archos 7
| platforms will surely enjoy the release and
| weâre definitely interested in their upcoming
| apps.
|
| In fact if youâre going to use this Angstrom
| Linux distribution-based firmware to create
| any fabulous app, then, by all means, let us
| know about it.

Archos 5 Internet Tablet Android-based PMP

,----[ Quote ]
| Gone is Archos' own - not exactly super
| swish - Linux-based OS and in its place
| sits Google's Linux-based mobile operating
| system, the first time that it's been seen
| in an official capacity on a shipping
| product that's not a phone.
|
| However, it's probably worth getting this
| out of the way early on: not all Android
| devices are created equal. Yes, Android is
| an open source operating system that any
| manufacturer can download and install onto
| its hardware without paying a fee. However,
| don't expect it come with all the
| applications you're accustomed to seeing on
| phones from the likes of HTC, for example.
| Specifically, you won't find Google's suit
| of apps on there by default since Google
| doesn't give those away for free.

Archos 5 Internet Tablet review

The Androids Have Landed

,----[ Quote ]
| Verizon has joined the Android invasion. T-
| Mobile was the first to incorporate the
| Google open source operation system, but
| with Sprint and now Verizon on board, the
| Android is mounting a taciturn coup d'etat
| that could annihilate the iPhone OS and
| become the top dog of operating systems.

Archos 5: The Linux Internet tablet for everyone

,----[ Quote ]
| If you want to buy one, they'll be available tomorrow,
| September 16th, from Amazon and the Archos Web site. There is
| one major caveat: this second-generation Archos 5 has the same
| name as its predecessor and, just to look at it, you could
| mistake it for its immediate ancestor. If you want to buy one,
| make darn sure you're getting the new model. Prices range from
| $249.99 for the 8GB device to $439.99 for the 500GB top-end
| model.

Archos' Android Tablet Looks Imminent--and Slick

,----[ Quote ]
| That's the Android operating system running on this fairly slick looking
| ARCHOS tablet, which is concrete proof that Android is headed for more than
| just smartphones. As JKOnTheRun notes, the ARCHOS 5 Android-based Internet
| Tablet isn't scheduled to go on sale until September 15th, but online
| retailer B&H jumped the gun and has a 500GB version of it shown and listed on
| its site. The ARCHOS 5 is a 5-inch slate, and JKOnTheRun reports that at one
| time B&H listed both HDD and SSD models, with prices ranging from $294 to
| $420, depending on configuration. Those specs have since been removed.
