ARCHOS 7 Reviews

Engadget
"The Archos 7 Home Tablet: 'tis really a story of you get what you pay for. We knew that the lack of an accelerometer, capacitive screen and access to the Android Market would be major downers, and, well, they were. Obviously, those things would jack up the price, and though the Archos 7 does some things decently, like play onboard videos and display e-books, for $199 we still wish it did more for the price, or was even cheaper."
Mobile Tech Review
"If you're interested in serious video playback and are tired of the cramped view on other portable players, the Archos 7 is enticing, and with 160 and 320 gigs of storage, it will hold a large library of videos. The web browser is quite good and Flash 9 keeps youtube flowing when in range of a WiFi access point."
PC Advisor
"The Archos 7 performs a set of core tasks reasonably well, and comes at very reasonable price. On the other hand, the touchscreen is hard to operate, and you can't buy new apps at the Android Market. Many Android smartphones in the same price range (with contract) perform much better and can access better apps, although the Archos 7 does bring a larger screen. People who want a low-priced Android tablet now may be happy with the purchase. However, we can't help thinking that you'd be able to get more for your buck from the spate of new Android tablets that will hitting the shelves in the coming months. The Archos 7 comes with a USB cable and a power cable with various adaptors and headphones."
Android Tablet Review
"Overall, Archos 7 is a bit lacking but at $199, you pretty much get what you pay for. If general internet browsing, internet radio, and a portable HD media player is what you are looking for, Archos 7 is definitely a great, affordable option with a big future ahead especially if Archos decides to upgrade the device to Android 2.1 or 2.2."

Archos 7 Unboxing and Review - Part 1
In this video, I'll be unboxing and reviewing the "Archos 7 Internet Media Tablet", as Archos calls it. The Archos 7 is a portable media player with a full built-in web browser which can display pages in full-size, play any kind of Flash video, view internet TV, store music, video, and even download/save them.
