I think it looks really nice, unfortunate that it does not have Honeycomb on it for whatever reason though :(
What do you guys think?

I've learned my lesson about Android

I bought an Archos 101 Internet tablet running 2.2 Froyo last November. Comparing it side by side with my fathers iPad there is no contest. Anything less than 3.0 Honeycomb is WORTHLESS as a tablet OS. Probably 25% to 30% of the apps I have downloaded from the Android Market did not function on my Archos. In comparison, how many iPad apps do not work? They ALL work in my experience. Gingerbread MAY function better than Froyo but that is an expensive gamble I would not take again. This Summer will be a very interesting time for consumers looking to purchase tablets. A little patience may save someone a LOT of disappointment. Archos has pushed out 4 (yes, 4) firmware updates since December 17th of last year and the Gen8 tablets still do not functioh as advertised. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!
