apples tablet market share dropped from 83% last year to 73.4% this year, and with the passing of their creative director and lobbyist, their market share is predicted to be around 50% in 2014. and by image, i meant apples appeal to the younger demographic of purchasing an apple product manifesting in the individual a 'different way of thinking', or 'appearing unique'.
@foureleven86 gee, i dunno, maybe someone who would want a tablet with a full-blown pc OS, not a tablet with an upsized version of the ios made for ipod touch ;)
@shadowseeker92 yeah n im sure thats why these r selling quicker than the ipad right? Or maybe because the reviews given by customers is around 2 to 2 and a half stars? who knows, but the fact is 75% of tablet sales came from apple last year and is estimated to keep growing.
@foureleven86 its just a matter of advertising and demographics :) apple has the money to give their flagship tablet the exposure it needs to be popular, but brands like archos are for the demographic that does research to find the device that they want exactly, not jumping to the first popular brand they can think of or that their friends own. when someone buys an apple product, are they buying the device for effectiveness and capabilities, or are they buying it for the brand name and image?
@shadowseeker92 Really? I can agree with marketing and all that but just buying something for its popularity or "image" sounds like a reach. To give apple the edge because of that is purely an opinion, Apple is notorious for not only being user friendly but high quality and cutting edge! Apple has money because ppl buy their products period, theres no getting around that. Ive seen many commercials for other tablets. Despite the demographics its remains the top seller out of all other brands.
lol... i like my archos 9 ... bit it makes creaking sounds when I am holding it... lol
I with the construction was a bit sturdyer but after tweeking the programs and os it gets the job done.
If you looking for a alternitive to an ipad get the "archos 101" if your looking for an alternitive to a net book get the "archos 9" "1.2 mhz is a must"
What a dumbass! You press the Archos onscreen keyboard button if you want the keyboard to appear on the login screen!
HAHA!! Why slate the device because of your own ignorance?
Another thing.. SD card slot isn't needed as you can just plug your camera in via usb and save yourself the bother of pulling the SD card out or buy a usb reader if you really care that much.
The size of the hard drive makes no difference to performance.. Hence.. drive read and seek / rpm times.
@fatriff Ist dir das nicht Peinlich son scheiss zu erzählen? OnScreenKeyboard ist grade om Startup eigentlich zu erwarten aka Kundenservice?! SD als speicher erweiterung? Use Google to translate that, if you know how Tard!
@lolstar1337 You clearly didn't watch the video then or you would see what I was responding to.. SD as memory expansion??? When you've got 100s of GB worth of storage on the device already! This isn't a phone, you can plug external usb drives into it if you want more storage or a card reader.
@chizomni The newer ones are pretty good, but at the time the Archos 9 was released it had much better hardware than the other Archos Android devices. It depends what you're looking for; having Windows 7 on it makes it far more than just a media/web device.
This Archos 9 isn't that bad at all, i made some modifications, My keyboard button is now customized, if you press 1 time the Windows 7 keyboard pops up, if you press 2 times the screen turns 90 degrees so you can use it as E-reader and if you press it 3 times the screen goes back to normal.
I installed Windows 7 Home Premium (big improvement) and i'm going to replace the 60Gb HDD for an 128Gb SSD
@imafurryhusky i dont need an ipad.. so i tested it but i dont like it ... to plaz games with the ipad is kinda nice but overall i dont like these pad..
@tmorales509 what do you want to do with your device? this probably has more utility with windows 7 on it, the ipad is more of a sit at home tablet, and the galaxy tab is the most portable of the three
Guys, stop looking at this device. I used like this as well but the ExoPC slate is better. Check it out :) no I am not from the company and I am not paid. I'm just passionate about it and think you guys should check it out as well.
I'm really doubting between this and an Ipad, I'm of a windows user when it comes to computers, but i have an Iphone and Ipod Touch. And my reason that i'm doubting between the 2 is: The battery life -. The Archos only has a max battery life of 3 hours with wifi on....Ipad has 11 hours wifi on. Also the touchscreen doens't seem that responsive, because i'm going to be using the tablet mostly for Sketching and graphical apps. (that's the reason i work with macs). I could use some advice.
@Darkphizer I thought the chap in the video just said, the battery life is 25 hours (listen to him at the start of the video). Anyways, if you go on Archos web site, they are selling a battery pack for the 9 tablet that is rechargeable @ £59.98. They also sell a wireless keypad for the 9 tablet as well. Being a microsoft head myself, I intend to buy this Archos 9 tab.....but I'm waiting to see feedbacks from those who already got one. I got the Archos 3 Cam Vision & its great so far.
@Darkphizer Okay, thanks. As I was about to print out the whole bio on this 9tab. So, are you going to buy it then? Did you click on the Archos site and see those accessories for the 9 Tablet that I told you about?
@H1MLA i ended up getting an Ipad, after seeing the keynote about the new IOS 4 I was convinced an Ipad would be the right choice for me. living everything minute of it, typing on it as we speak. I did check ou those accesoiries for the archos, though i could't see myself working on a Windows 7 tablet, Windows 7 just seems more of an desktop OS. But those are just my two cents. Whatever you end up buying, you'll like it without a doubt.
@Darkphizer Thanks for the feedback mate. I respect your choice, but I ain't a fan of the Ipad as I spend an hour in an apple store inspecting it and couldn't convince myself that I should get it. For one, it had no USB port and there's too many minus than plus for me, as far as the ipad goes. Enjoy your Ipad and hopefully, you might make a video on it and I will watch it. Peace.
@Darkphizer That's what i was thingking at the start too, no usb???? but after some googling, i figured out that you can get usb acces using the camera connection kit, but you will need to jailbreak. But most people agree on this, an Idevice isn't much without the jailbreak after all. Though i can't JB at the moment, cus there isn't a hack for Firmware 3.2.2 wich came standard from factory on my device. Pretty much sucks, but i'm spending $30 on apps untill then :)
@BAAAASJE Cheers, a poster already put me straight on that. Okay, I will go and watch your channel now and then return with some questions for you, as I'm seriously thinking of buying this Archos 9 tablet.
@hlodog because this is archos ipad is apple...and as we know apple is good at marketing stuff.
only thing apple has (which is the only reason I would want an ipad over something like this) is the app store. other companies are making app stores too but i think the whole itunes of it all makes it more user friendly. I hate the price of the ipad though and this actually seems pretty nice though I kinda dont like these tablets with windows because for me windows needs to be on a desktop/lapto
@megamindstorm101 thats true apple does market like there's no tomorrow.
is it good to have the app store cause you can get anything. they thing that just really gets me with apple that i cant get over is that you can never change the batteries
@megamindstorm101 yeah it is getting ridiculous when huge things like 360's are more affordable then that.
I can relate on that, most times i wait for stuff to get cheap but the you gotta buy it like that second or its gone forever. if only prices could be lower. i'm sure that the lowering of price would be over compensated by how many more units they would actually sell
i have a archos 9 for 2,5months now, and it's just as good as a normal windows pc.
you can't play games but that doesn't matter, it's a nice device for hd video, music, etc.
the ipad is just an adult version of the itouch, nothing special.
apple devices will never be like windows devices, apple has no flash plug-ins, itunes is rubbish, only 2 games support mac........ windows is way better.
i reccomend the archos 9, it's fast, slick, light weight and it has windows 7.
exopc is gonna be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better i hate archos. had two both permanently crashed and both never dropped once. archos will never have good products.
I have never used an tablet PC before (i tried the ipad for 20 min..) and i realy like it.
it's not that slow, internet works just as my desktop pc, streaming video is ok, i can not watch better video's than 320p on youtube, but that's fine by me.
I downloaded 2 movies (720p-230p) and they work fine (with VLC media player)
google earth is rubbish on this device, google maps works ok.
i have a question if i may....ive seen asus coming out with a 10 inch and a 12 inch tablet...the 12 inch is to run home premium while the 10 inch has embedded compact....is it possible to have a home premium environment running on an embedded compact model..allowing for the installation of .exe programs etc?? thnx...nice vid bro
I doubt this can compete with the Ipad since archos has been producing tablets since the early 2000's and nobody has oogled at tablets since Appple came out with the Ipad. The product can be crap, but the market share will always hold out.
@WinLinOSX I might be having second thoughts. I've been reading a lot of reviews on this, and it seems to be un-responsive and the whole thing isn't completely finished. I would just get the iPad. Though, I cannot run windows, but I can still use iTeleport to access it.
All I want to know is can it run MS OneNote decently enough with Powerpoints/PDFs printed into a virtual notebook so that I can use highlight/annotate/write on them it for school? Any input?
I reckom one of these little babies running an emulator could make it the best hand held gaming console on the market. If it had an SD card slot it'd be a world beater.
@allthings321 lol I have nothing against apple except that EVERYONE has an ipod. The fun with archos players is the curios looks u get from ppl on the bus and town :P
iPad is much better, iPad is much prettier. Windows PCs are so ugly they are so much heavier. Plus they are so much slower. you can quickly get a virus on a Windows PC. On a Mac, it's almost impossible to get it ...
@jorkpett1991 theres a reason for why you MAC fan boys or girls dont get because they are not as many mac users as windows, if everyone had a mac there would be loads of viruses. and if your stupid obv you get viruses but when you use it right bam you dont get a virus
the archos is so much better but people are only gonna hear about the ipad because its made by apple. And people just want whatever crap apple is producing..
I don't think the JooJoo will be that popular as it is only an interent device and I don't think it will have a 3g option so you can't do much with it without having a internet connection nearby. Where as with this, without a internet connection theres lots you can do.
I'm kind of stumped, obviously this device is better in terms of features but all I need is something for web access and basic notes in school so I'm not sure wether I want this or an iPad because I know Apple's hardware design and quality is amazing, while I have never even seen an archos!
Is this a truly good tablet ? Or is it just rubbish ?

I bought it wednesday, and it is stunning.
I have never used an tablet PC before (i tried the ipad for 20 min..) and i realy like it.
it's not that slow, internet works just as my desktop pc, streaming video is ok, i can not watch better video's than 320p on youtube, but that's fine by me.
I downloaded 2 movies (720p-230p) and they work fine (with VLC media player)
google earth is rubbish on this device, google maps works ok.
I really like it.

why dont you just install windows 7 ultimatefrom usb drive
isaisai9192 1 year ago
I doubt this can compete with the Ipad since archos has been producing tablets since the early 2000's and nobody has oogled at tablets since Appple came out with the Ipad. The product can be crap, but the market share will always hold out.

@WinLinOSX I might be having second thoughts. I've been reading a lot of reviews on this, and it seems to be un-responsive and the whole thing isn't completely finished. I would just get the iPad. Though, I cannot run windows, but I can still use iTeleport to access it.

All I want to know is can it run MS OneNote decently enough with Powerpoints/PDFs printed into a virtual notebook so that I can use highlight/annotate/write on them it for school? Any input?

I reckom one of these little babies running an emulator could make it the best hand held gaming console on the market. If it had an SD card slot it'd be a world beater.

iPad is much better, iPad is much prettier. Windows PCs are so ugly they are so much heavier. Plus they are so much slower. you can quickly get a virus on a Windows PC. On a Mac, it's almost impossible to get it ...
jorkpett1991 1 year ago
@jorkpett1991 theres a reason for why you MAC fan boys or girls dont get because they are not as many mac users as windows, if everyone had a mac there would be loads of viruses. and if your stupid obv you get viruses but when you use it right bam you dont get a virus

the archos is so much better but people are only gonna hear about the ipad because its made by apple. And people just want whatever crap apple is producing..
Insanity714 1 year ago
Archos is probably one of the best cheapest tablets out there.
I prefer it to iPad as a business man
as well as the media and screen quality
if you want a cheap one
that works decent
with flash ability
get this and screw it all else

I don't think the JooJoo will be that popular as it is only an interent device and I don't think it will have a 3g option so you can't do much with it without having a internet connection nearby. Where as with this, without a internet connection theres lots you can do.
pmopmo4824 1 year ago
Yeah, I think the HP Slate will do the best.

So amazing.
Defs looking to get one to use in the field for showing clients photos during photoshoots!
And possibly editing??
The iPad lacks a HUGE feature here that is key to photographers...a SD slot, or USB slot.

how good will this run GIMP? I want to do line drawing, not photo editing, hopefully it'll respond quick enough to my input....
Any one know? Honest answers please.

the Ipad Sales are amazing..
But, the Archos 9 Pc Tablet is in my opinion better, because Itunes is not user friendly, Apple focusus too much on the design...
BAAAASJE 1 year ago
@BAAAASJE
I'm kind of stumped, obviously this device is better in terms of features but all I need is something for web access and basic notes in school so I'm not sure wether I want this or an iPad because I know Apple's hardware design and quality is amazing, while I have never even seen an archos!
What do you think? Or anyone else who reads this.
