This is largely due to device\u2019s rich media features.&#160; The ARCHOS 5 has a 5\u201d 800&#215;480 touchscreen and an extensive codec library; this not only means that video will look great, but also that you won\u2019t have to worry about the rigid transcoding requirements of other mobile video devices (cough\u2026 iPhone\u2026 cough).&#160; Popular image and audio formats are compatible with the ARCHOS 5 as well.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Other features include the ability to playback 720p HD video (including MKV, MPEG-2, H.264, WMV HD files\/formats), Android application support, an 800MHz ARM CPU, 802.11n Wi-Fi, an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.archos.com\/products\/imt\/archos_5it\/accessories.html?country=us&amp;lang=en&amp;p=hdminidock\" >HDMI Mini Dock<\/a> (optional), a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.archos.com\/products\/imt\/archos_5it\/accessories.html?country=us&amp;lang=en\" >DVR Station<\/a> for recording TV (optional), a web browser, integrated GPS (navigation is a paid feature), a microSDHC memory slot (flash models), social networking software and more.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">We hope to get one of these devices in for review soon.&#160; If you have an Archos 5 Android tablet, let us know what you think of it!<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\" id=\"video\">        <object class=\"playerpreview\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" data=\"http:\/\/www.archos.com\/swf\/player\/player_flv.swf\" width=\"528\" height=376\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.archos.com\/swf\/player\/player_flv.swf\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"false\" \/><param name=\"FlashVars\" value=\"flv=http:\/\/www.archos.com\/swf\/guided_tour_a5it.flv&amp;srtsize=18&amp;width=528&amp;height=376&amp;showstop=1&amp;showvolume=1&amp;showtime=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;videobgcolor=ffffff&amp;bgcolor=ffffff&amp;bgcolor1=858585&amp;bgcolor2=000000&amp;playercolor=000000&amp;buttoncolor=a5c400&amp;buttonovercolor=f7f7f7&amp;sliderovercolor=a5c400&amp;showplayer=always\" \/><p>Guided tour<\/p>\n<p><\/object>        <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new ARCHOS 5 Android-powered Internet Tablet (the first non-phone Android device released) is now available for purchase in the United States at Amazon.com.&#160; The tablet is available in three variations: 500GB and 160GB drive-based models and a 32GB flash-based model.<br \/>\nThe ARCHOS 5 is one of the first non-smartphone devices to firmly grab our attention [&#8230;] <a href=\"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/?p=11165\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11165","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11165\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computerhunter.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
