Two new Honeycomb tablets from Archos are shipping to the Philippines next month. Announced back in June, the Archos 80 and Archos 101 G9 tablets feature dual-core 1.5GHz processors and up to 250GB of internal storage. In a casual meeting with the new local reps of Archos yesterday, they revealed that the new models are expected to arrive sometime in October. Coming from a strong background in the portable media player (PMP) space, Archos is the only tablet manufacturer to offer large-capacity tablets up to 250GB (obviously, for storing HD movies). As for the retail price, I am told they will try and offer it under Php20k to remain competitive (for the Archos 101). The Archos 80 should also be cheaper -- probably in the Php16k range. Archos has introduced 5 new Android-powered tablets running processors from 800Mhz to 1GHz and sizes ranging from 2.8 inches to 10.1 inches. Archos 101 10.1 inch display @ 1024x600 pixel capacitive screen 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 CPU 720p HD video playback.
