Maybe you should vote for an SDK here http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.p ... 23&start=0
Which happens to be the only option for something useful.

After browsing the web I came across this little beuty. It's far from finished but its a start.

It's a flash version of the classic Amiga/Pc game "The Secret Of Monkey Island". or to be more to the point. It's a flash version of the comic based on the game.

More useful than Flash 9...?

That would be so sweet! Of course, if someone could port ScummVM onto the 605, we could have all the Monkey Island games, as well as all the other LucasArts adventure games!!!

Maybe they'll develop an emulator that will show you what a fully functioning 605 is supposed to look like

You know that we could do Flash 9 ourselves with an SDK, along with anything you could think of?

We shouldnt have to do it ourselves. I spent Ôé¼30 on a web browser, I expect it to work properly. Flash 9 is not new technology, it was out when the web browser was released. I understand the limitations of Flash Lite and all that, but its up to Archos to either provide the update or tell us they cant do it.

Dont get me wrong, an SDK would be fantastic, but I think an Archos released Flash 9 browser would benifit more people in the short term.

That is exactly the same logic and frustration I was getting at in this post...i.e. we shouldn't have to spend money to fix something Archos should be getting right the first time.
