Android Phone? There’s a Bigger Market for the OS

lockergnome asked:


go.tagjag.com - twitter.com - You don’t necessarily have to lock yourself into a two-year contract to make use of the Android operating system. Thanks to the Archos 5 Internet Tablet, you can have video playback and web browsing - and use Android, as well. I ran into Charbax during the LeWeb conference in Paris last week. He asked me if I’d like to check one of these out, so that I can finally use Android (and an Archos!) myself. I’m more than grateful to them for providing this unit to me for review purposes. chris.pirillo.com - http

    I will be getting the 16gb version before I go to Seattle on vacation. This seems like the best device to do that.

    MAN! i so wish, that google would develop firmware updates to allow use of an external USB camera on the archos 5IT!

  12. Lazerkatz0r0Strikin says:

    google is the awesomeness

  13. CavalierLiberty says:

    Be careful that it is the archos 5 with android and not the last generation without. The 5s without android are cheap.

  14. PCTechCrew says:

    I’d rather get an iPad ;)

  15. GTAXLLive says:

    The app store that’s the best. Apple App Store. FTW. But that’s nice too. And I love google!

  16. mircir says:

    you can get it cheap at amazon

  17. xLukinx says:

    @blowtell3 That’s one stupid comment.. Why would you hold the device and having it shaking around the screen all the time as he moves, plus blocking the view of the screen, when you got a perfectly good stand? And hes not the one with Britney videos on his channel. Queer.

    way bulky…

  19. ChancellorTrample says:

    the horrible reviews probably come from either ipod trend-lovers or people who are trying to run way too many apps on it at once (for the ones who complain about crashing issues)

  20. IommiVai says:

    Attack Of The Show (AOTS) on G4 did a review on the Archos 5. it didnt get that good of a rating.

  21. paulsixone says:

    i am going to be getting the cliq though… think i can get the same app?

  22. parillo400 says:

    theres an app for the droid to watch flash videos so you can watch redtube, youporn et ALL THE PORN YOU WANT lol

  23. mootix1313 says:

    they have updated, but they withdrew the 1.6 fw b/c of wifi issues and it’s rootable :P

    the headbox dont work after 2 months
    you have to press the shell to make it work
    every hour hanging 2-3 times
    Fm-Transmitter only usable with Headset
    Radio dont work good
    The new firmware help not for the crashes
    and scrolling is very bad

    Archos are cheap and support are is unfriendly
    Keep away of cheap Products
