The touchscreen Samsung YP-R0 has now made it to Korean retail stores. As we noticed before, this PMP doesn’t really stand out. Samsung has had some nice Yepp PMPs, and for a time we have even put them side by side with the iPod Touch for comparison. Not anymore. I’m sure the UI is pretty [...]

French manufacturer Archos has been bitten by the budget bug lately. Despite the premium Internet tablets (e.g. Archos 5), the company has been keen on flooding the market with cheap mini-PMPs. The Archos Clipper, Vision 2 and Vision 3 have all come out this year to a pretty much disinterested public. And now they are [...]

Korean PMP manufacturer, COWON, has leaked the W2 MID, an Intel Atom device. We don’t know much except that it’s going to be touchreen and it will have WiFi connectivity. How big a touchscreen? Your guess is as good as mine. The COWON W2 wll probably compete with the new Archos Internet tablets. GMP3 is [...]

To tell the truth, there is very little that excites us about the Archos 3 Vision. Besides its unoriginal looks, it’s a mid-range PMP featureswise with none of the cutting edge specs that the newer Archos Internet Tablets possess. Archos 3 Vision by roylovelock For a 3-inch player, it’s got quite a good, crisp screen. Good [...]

Engadget has dug up two new Archos Internet Tablets under FCC review. They are the A5S and the A5H. They both seem to be spin-offs of the Archos 5, but they could very well be new devices… to be revealed on the September 15 Archos event. We expect a 5-inch touchscreen device with WiFi. The [...]

Three new Archoses were available for review at Archos lounge. The Archos Clipper MP3 player and Archos 2 Vision and 3 Vision look too gray for me at the moment. I’m sure Archos will supply us with various colors for the three. The Teclast lookalike Archos 3 is in full live display as well. Archos [...]

Google Android will officially be run on Archos devices on September 15. The funny thing is, Archos mentions a 5-inch Internet Tablet. If you remember, Archos has already announced a 5-inch tablet along wth a 7-inch one earlier this year. Is this the same hardware or something totally new? AppsLib has also been soft-launched. It [...]

French PMP manufacturer Archos has an iPod Shuffle competitor. It’s really just a screenless DAP with buttons and an unbelievable 11 hours of playback for a full charge. The Archos Clipper will set you back 35 euros for the 2GB. Right now the Archos Clipper doesn’t sound like much more than another option for those [...]
