Archosfans has a fairly long video showing off the Archos 10S netbook, a $399 netbook. I honestl hadn’t heard much about it and Archos doesn’t sell much here. Writes charbax:
It is probably one of
the best values at 399 dollars for a slim netbook designs (only 22mm)
thanks to their super optimized Magnesium case design. They have a
cool maximum sized keyboard and a nice 10.2″ matte screen. They also
are the first I a heard to include 1 year of Microsoft Office use for
free in the Windows 7 version and a 100 euro/dollar free credit to use
for 1.99 euro/dollar or 2.99 euro/dollar per movie to stream in DVD or
HD quality from the Archos Movie portal.










The “maximum” sized keyboard sounds great. Probably larger than HP’s netbook?? And I hope it would do native 720p; like what the Lenovo s10-2 promises to do some time late.
I think it does playback 720p, I think they do promote it having that, but I also think that actually all netbooks can playback 720p video using media player classic and a h264 optimizing decoder.
You can try for yourself, use media player classic and install the CoreAVC decoder on any netbook and it will become able to playback h264 at 720p.
Please tell me the interviewer is faking that accent…
I tend to exaggerate my french accent cause I am a huge fan of Peter Sellers and I always try to sound like him when I do videos.
If that’s true, it’s hilarious.
