The Android-running Archos 7 tablet
The Archos 7 Tablet is an Android-based device with a seven-inch, 800 x 480 touchscreen display. It's 12mm thick and weighs in at 350g. It kinda looks like a giant smartphone.
The device is based on a single-core ARM 9 processor running at 600MHz, and according to Archos's CEO, Henri Crohas, fits the niche between smartphone and PC. I guess he forgot about a similar device made by Apple AKA the iPad.
It comes with an integrated USB connector and supports Wi-Fi, video, music playback, photo browsing and there's access to some Android apps. It also comes with a few Android widgets already thrown in.
It's French manufacturer says it can play video for up to seven hours on a single charge, or 44 hours of music. Archos says the built in speakers are, "a very capable replacement for a hi-fi or radio".
If you're tempted to buy an iPad or another tablet, then this one is a a little bit smaller but will certainly be easier on the wallet than the iPad.
