Bottom line
The Archos 5 is a great video player, but it disappoints as a premium Android Internet tablet and GPS unit.
With its excellent design, useful software features, and low starting price, the Nexus 7 is the cheapest way to experience the best that the Android OS has to offer.
The Archos 5 is a great video player, but it disappoints as a premium Android Internet tablet and GPS unit.
The Archos 7 Home Tablet isn't going to amaze you with its specs or features, but its low price and core Android features--Web, e-mail, media playback--make it a workable iPad alternative.
The latest iPad adds several tweaks and improvements to secure its position at the top of the tablet heap. It's better all around, but third-gen owners need not apply.
