Recently I've played with the new Archos 5 just to find out about the new OMAP CPU (yes, again at Saturn Alexanderplatz). Man the thing is heavy. Too heavy. And the browser is slow! My first test was again to try to open a local file. No success, it does not understand "file://...". I simply hate this attitude... The screen however is just wonderful.

The browser is slow? On an OMAP3? That is really sad. Really Sad. But its Archos, so...
Screen is OLED right? I hope all the new devices come out with OLED screens.
Edit: Ok, got confused with another device. Its just an LCD...

i suspect that some will think any browser not going chrome fast on a quad core with 4 way sli will be slow, oh and lets back that up with a 100MB+ fiber connection to the net

I guess Opera had to struggle with all these Archos' bonds.

I think the ARCHOS Generation 5G is the best solution for all people who wantbest tabletpc performace, it is opensource and it is better of a nokia nxxx. It have OMAP3 processor on Linux OS with WiFi and 3G connectivity, 4.8" screen with a resolution of 800x480.
3G connectivity is only announced. No bluetooth. They don't let you NEAR the linux that's in there. Sorry, the Archos 5G is to the NIT's what gaming consoles are to PC-s. Each has a purpose, and if you think they address the same people and the same needs you're pretty wrong.
