"Archos 5 Internet Tablet is the best hardware with Android at the moment. Archos displays 800x480 medium density on a much larger 2x larger screen. You get the full width of all websites with no zooming in needed. Any app, including twidroid look much better on Archos much larger screen simply because you get 2x more information on the screen. And the Archos is not too big to fit in a pocket, it's smaller than most wallets and passports. Archos costs $249 with no contracts needed, just WiFi or 3G through bluetooth tethering. iphone, droid, palm do NOT support Youtube HD playback. (what are you talking about??) Archos supports real Youtube HD support see http://archosfans.com/2009...... multitouch is a useless gimmick but can easily be added to Android (probably some sort of US-only legal matter because Apple wants to own IP to be the only one to use multi-touch or something, but Google shouldn't have to respect that completely idiotic claim (apple never invented..." - Charbax

Wow. You're not doing Chippy and Jenn any favors by misquoting and turning their words around. Being such a fanboi has turned your credibility to zero. This device is very intriguing, but your constant overhyping is definitely a turnoff for anything Archos. This is ridiculous. Even your own forum members think you're delusional. http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtop... - Rodfather

"Those 30 or so "important" apps are available on Android as well, or if they are important enough can easily be made available." - Charbax

"1. Android phones will be sold for $100 UNLOCKED. How come? Well that's simply cause 25 manufacturers are making Android phones, and in fact it only costs $100 to manufacture one of these 3.5" smartphones. 2. You will never see real VOIP apps on the iphone cause Apple and AT and other iphone carriers around the world are corrupt and they hate VOIP. The carriers feel VOIP is their worse enemy. You won't even see fake VOIP apps like Google Voice on the iphone. Android will have real SIP, Skype and other real VOIP apps. Which means that with a $100 Android phone, no need to EVER pay for voice and sms. 3. Android does multi-tasking which matters. You want your phone to ring on incoming VOIP calls you want it to do sounds on incoming IM, RSS, and any other pings and updates from any other number of really useful apps. The iphone does none of that cause it's just not made right. Finally, Sales of Android phones is accelerating. Iphone sales are definitely slowing. Next year iphone sales..." - Charbax

"IF they are not iFart apps, most apps are worthless copies of other apps. I can get an automatic system to make an iphone app for $5 on certain websites, a useless app that basically lists my blogs RSS feed or something worthless like that. That should not count as an app, because in fact this app produces thousands of copy apps which are all basically one app." - Charbax

"This is finally a good reason to Like items on Google Reader. If there is a good way to get recommendations from all feeds of the whole web in real-time, based on topics of Interest or keywords, then this will be a good replacement for the web. I posted for them to do since 2007: http://groups.google.com/group...... and http://www.getsfn.com/google_...... This could be very significant and turn Google Reader into the place everyone will read the web + realtime web. Hopefully this will lead to the decentralization of freedom of speech, so everyone with a good idea, everyone with a good story, will automatically filter to the top of everyones Magic read/see/watch/listen lists. Deending on how good the algorithm is, if they integrate with Youtube and Picasaweb, if they offer granularity in the ways that Magic list is generated, this could be the big revolution." - Charbax
