Posted on 12 April 2010, Last updated on 10 June 2018 by

gen_8-slide It was already known that Archos would bet the farm on a new range of Android Tablets this summer and so we’ve been anxiously awaiting the first leaks. And here they are.

Archos Lounge (translation) are reporting (source: ITNews) that the Archos 8 Family will be available by the end of summer. The range will run from 3 inch to 10 inch, will be Cortex A8-based (Ti OMAP as with the current Archos 5 Internet Tablet) and will……oh I so want to just copy the whole article from Archos Lounge but the wouldn’t be fair on them. Hop over there, check it out and let us know what you think here.

Did someone say Multitouch=Capacitive? The big outstanding question for me has to be Do they have Android 2.x with Google Apps?

    i thought at first this was about the archos 8 home tablet.

    they really need to clean up their product naming.

    I don’t think Archos is a big enough company to produce and support that many products. Maybe they’re feeling out what sizes would get the most interest.
