The Archos Android Internet Tablet, the company’s first PMP to make phone calls, has been priced and dated. Want to know when Android breaks free from mobiles? Read on.
We first got word of the Archos Android Internet Tablet last month with whispers of a September release, but it looks like that’s now been shunted forward. Archos’s financial results for 2008 have just been published, and the report states that the Multimedia Internet Tablet, as the Archos Android Internet Tablet is referred to, will ship from the start of Q3 – July in other words.
The financial document also mentions that none of Archos’s forthcoming products will come in above €500 (£470), so we might be looking at the pricetag for the Archos Android Internet Tablet right there. Let’s hope the exchange rate shifts between now and Summer.
The document doesn’t give any other details on the Archos Android Internet Tablet (and there are still no images leaking out of Archos’ underground Android development bunker), so we assume the plan is still for a five inch screen, HD playback, 500GB hard drive and Flash support.
As soon as we unearth any more details on the Archos Android Internet Tablet we’ll let you know. Until then, soothe your curiosity with the original specs Archos laid out last month.
Out July | £TBC | Archos
Sounds good, lets hope the digital TV module will fit this as well.
