Congrats

I was so happy to see how beautiful everything looks on the big screen. My kids thought I was crazy!:-)

I'm happy to report that my HDMI problem is due to a faulty cable

The app loads but then shuts down after agreeing with the TOS. This app doesn't load on my android phone either, so maybe its just me

I'm hoping that someone can help to identify a problem I'm having with a new A70 tablet. Here's a video of the issue I'm having: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXyzb4Wcdlk I've made sure the cable is connected properly and I've tried two different HDMI ports. FYI, my DVD player connected to the same...

One last thought - my advice is to cancel your order and buy it through TigerDirect.com. If you pay an extra $11 you can have it in your hands in 3 days. That's important to a tech junkie (:>) My next purchase will definitely be through another store. My device was apparently shipped over a week ag...

Just checked out the link and spent a while playing it! LOL Cool.

The "Leaves" idea is interesting and would certainly be useful, but in the meantime, I believe I've found a temporary solution: Since I don't have my Archos device yet, I've tested this on my HTC Legend. Basically, using the app "Powerstrip", you can run simple widgets while inside of another app, s...

Yes, apparently very well on the Archos 70.

NOW that said, what might be easily possible is a "split" app where you can get a browser and a video player, or notes and a browser. Maybe a few other basic features. Its and interesting idea, I may play with this a little bit. I'll report back if I get anywhere with it. It doesn't even have to be...

I'm sure this can be done... 7" and 10" tablets have more than enough room to "share" screen space between two apps, so why not implement this feature? I'm sure running a browser and contacts app won't tax the CPU too much. This would be true multitasking :) I remember back in the old palm days, you...

Tell me about it Allan. My order has stayed @ Billing Information Received for the past 11 days. Getting my 101 before Christmas would be great, but it's looking more and more impossible. Though honestly, I don't mind. I've waited 2 months, I can wait just a little longer. And Scott has been the mo...

The Archos "70b" is not even close to the current Archos 70IT. Not sure why they called it "70b", perhaps it's to confuse people, but the cost and specs are much less than the current 70IT model, so it's not a replacement.

I have had iphones for the past 2 years-they charge through usb without any issues. heck, my ipad charges through the usb on mini and imac. You're telling me the android world can't figure it out? :roll: Perhaps it's because I use an extended battery (I don't think you have extended batteries for I...

1) No USB charging. -- Archos uses a standard USB connection, but then saddles us with a proprietary charging solution. Too bad. Most people have a bunch of USB cables laying around the house. For what it's worth, USB charging doesn't fully (or properly) charge most devices. For instance, when I ch...
