Slim and light Android internet tablet
At home and on the go. The slim and light design of the ARCHOS 70 internet tablet makes it both portable
and generous for sharing your best moments with your family and friends. All the functions of a computer:
Thin,light and strong:
ARCHOS Internet Tablets are the thinnest and lightest around thanks to a patented process of plastic overmolding
developed by Archos. They stay strong and resistant thanks to an inner metal structure of high-tensile strength
stainless steel embedded inside an injected plastic enclosure. Steel and plastic are directly bound resulting in
high overall structural strength and reduced shell thickness. The shell thickness is reduced from 2 mm for plastic
right down to 0.3 mm for stainless steel in large flat areas where the steel is exposed giving the product a stylish
metallic finish.
Capacitive multitouch screen:
Android:
Android is the application framework developed by Google for connected mobile devices, coming with a full pack of connected apps
such as a web browser and email application. The 5 home screens of the Android user interface allow advanced personalization: icons
can be placed, moved or erased with just a flick of a finger. Thanks to the home screen widgets, users can instantly access their
favorite applications.
Internet on the go by Tethering to your cellphone:
Want to be connected anywhere? Just link-up your 3.5G cellphone and your ARCHOS 70 internet tablet. Whether via your phone’s Portable
Wifi hotspot (Android Froyo and many other wifi-capable smartphones), Bluetooth™ or even via USB cable, your ARCHOS 70 internet tablet
can use your cellphone as a 3.5G modem.
Giving you free easy access to the Internet directly from your ARCHOS 70 internet tablet anytime and anywhere, tethering is the way to
go for mobile internet on your tablet using the data service plan of your cellphone.
Unique Android Multimedia Applications:
On top of Android’s latest version, ARCHOS, still at the forefront of innovation, brings you exclusive applications: The internet tablets
feature music, video and photo applications, developed by ARCHOS, that enrich the user experience with smooth browsing through the album
covers and with widgets added to the home screen to give instant access and control to media. These unique Android™ applications allow
users to amplify their digital experience. One of these functions, 3D album cover application, allows you to glide through your music by
album covers. You can also make your own music playlists or browse your songs and music by favorites, recently played or recently added.
Because you want to enjoy your videos and TV shows without re-encoding them with complicated software, ARCHOS makes your life easier
by supporting audio and video formats beyond the standard ones of Android. It can even display subtitles and alternate audio tracks,
all you have to do is drag, drop, and play!
What other functions were created for you? An internet connected Photo frame application with 3D transitions, and the ability to sync your
pictures with your Facebook©, Picasa© or Flickr© account.
Tablet PC:
ARCHOS has ‘opened up’ their Internet Tablets allowing users to install or even replace the Android system installed on the device. Experienced
developers and programmers can install a complete Linux operating system such as Linux Ångström distribution.
When using Linux Ångström you will be joining a community of open source developers constantly adding in new features, new apps, drivers and icons.
Archos is proud to support the community of Linux on mobile platforms, and has chosen Ångström out of all Linux OS for their philosophy of creation
that we both share.
The user can easily connect accessories to the ARCHOS 70 internet tablet. By connecting a USB keyboard or Bluetooth™, the tablet turns into a real PC,
ideal for working with office files.

the widest variety of needs you might have. It's so easy and quick.
