Google Android On Archos!

A great news for Archos users which I've read about in ABI.
Personally, I'm a great fan of Google Android due to the functions of the OS. Fantastic I must say.

This is great news for Archos; putting Android on their devices will really bring them to the forefront. I love the latest Archos 5 hardware but the underlying OS leaves much to be desired. I recently spent some time with the G1 mobile phone and while I was not blown away by Android it is moving in the right direction. That said in its current state it still is eons above the current Archos OS. So I hope they are replacing all of their device OSes with Android.

Also keep in mind that Achos has a 3G version of the Archos 5 (called the Archos 5 IMT)- the size it won’t make for a feasible phone, but perhaps a very usable mobile tablet. Additionally, there are a few attachments like GPS and TV to add more goodies to the mix.

Do you think the Android OS can be applied to its bigger brother, the Archos 7?

Definitely yes IMHO but I'm not sure when will it happen. Maybe it's already available?
