Default Will Archos finally get one right?

Looks like this COULD be a good option. Smaller size with two full usb host ports (micro and full size). Also has IMO a better chipset and will have better codec support.

Only 512mb ram though....

Just ordered mine, cant complain on the features, Android 3.2, 4/3 screen, Micro SD and HDMI all for £199, even if its half as good as the ASUS transformer that i had for a day!

The first firmware update is out already as well!

Build quality is still questionable, but there's not much choice out there for multimedia tablets.

Not happy they downgraded the processor. Was going to buy, now taking a pass.

I'm ordering the 80G9 this week from Tiger Direct I think this will be great! It has the full Android Marketplace (unlike the Apps Lib from the 70 Internet Tablet) and it also has version 3.2 of Honeycomb. I can see a download to ICS not long after getting it. I already have the Acer Iconia A500, which has been a great tablet for me; I just want a mid-size tablet to go with it. The Archos 70 Internet Tablet had a great feel in my hand, just was so last-year tho!
