Amazon.com: Archos 32 3.2-inch Internet Tablet With Android: Computers & Accessories Preview
I'm an iPhone 4 user and a gadget freak. I've been wanting to try the Android experience, but didn't want to spend the money for the device and a 2-year contract to give it a shot. I'm also a runner and needed a device to take with me when running. This device fits the bill nicely. Not only do I get a great media player, but I also get a Wi-Fi connected device that will allow me to browse the web, download podcasts and check my e-mail.
As purchased the device came with Android 2.1. An update to 2.2 (FroYo) was available immediately and I installed. Glad I did. Much snappier performance. You should do this before you do anything else. I then side-loaded an app that installed several Google Apps and provided access to the Android Marketplace. A simple Google Search for "archos android marketplace install" should provide you with the instructions. It really is a simple process.
I'm a Mac user so the next thing I did was install the free DoubleTwist software. This software will sync up your iTunes library and movies. Worked well and if you want to pay for Wi-Fi syncing services, that is available also in the Android Marketplace.
Here's a small list of the free apps from the Marketplace I recommend installing immediately that will demonstrate the device's capabilities:
* Angry Birds (of course)
* Listen (Podcast manager and downloader)
* Amazon Kindle (Book Reader)
* RadioTime (Online radio streaming)
As for the resistive touch screen, don't expect multi-touch capability nor capacitive touch performance; however, it does the job. The device is fairly responsive but can get a bit sluggish when multitasking, but this is very rare. I love the size! The 3.2" screen (thus the Archos 32 moniker), is a good size for my use. If you want to watch movies, might I recommend the Archos 43 for its larger screen size and video out.
Lastly, let me discuss the price...AMAZING! I purchased this device on sale for $129.00. You can get the less expensive Archos 28 for less than $100! This makes the Archos series a very reasonable way to experience the Android experience and keep a secondary device for times when an iPhone might be a bit bulky or you don't want to risk damage. I can't say enough about this device and it comes as a highly recommended gadget!
