Archos to release Android phone/tablet

Posted in Archos by Conner Flynn on February 9th, 2009

Archos to release Android phone/tabletWe’ll probably hear more about it at MWC, but Texas Intruments issued a press release about Archos’s use of the OMAP3 processor in an upcoming “Internet Media Tablet” that runs on Android and doubles as a phone. There aren’t any pictures yet, but the spec sheet reads like an upgraded Archos 5.

Some features include a five-inch screen, up to a 500GB hard drive, a battery that will give you up to seven hours of video playback, and Flash support. The whole thing in a package just 10mm thick. They even mention HD video playback.

This could be a really sweet Android device when it launches in the third quarter.

    It seems that it has everything and I especially like the H. D.

    A 500 GB drive seems a bit excessive but you can never have too much memory can you?
