Archos gets new ultraportable notebook ready for the limelight.
Archos is mostly known for its line of PMPs and MIDs. The company has tried to produce a netbook form factor device before but the devices never really caught on. Back in October, we did get our first glimpse of the
Archos 9 tablet running Windows 7. A couple new updates from Archos are incoming next month.
Archos will debut a new notebook form factor device called the
Archos Notebook A13PS. The machine will ship in April, use an Intel D510 CPU, and run Windows 7 Home Premium. No hard details are offered on the device, but considering they call it a notebook and not a netbook, my money says the screen is 13-inches judging by the model number.
Archos also outed an update for that sexy Archos 9 PC tablet that I mentioned before. The tablet will get an Atom Z515 CPU upgrade sometime this month. It still sports the same 17mm profile and 9-inch touchscreen we saw back in October. With the iPad landing soon, the Archos 9 is also touting its superior specs like 1080p video, Flash support, camera, and USB port.
