Geek Grotto

While at CES, we also had a chance to talk to Craig from Archos again. This time about the Archos Gamepad, a 7" Android Table running Jelly Bean and featuring actual buttons for gameplay. The best part is Archos' Game Mapping tool that allows you to map your touchscreen controls to the buttons on the tablet. Watch Craig tell us about the Gamepad after the jump!

At CES we had a chance to visit ARCHOS' booth and play with some of their upcoming tablets, especially the Titanium line. These are low priced Google certified devices with AMAZING IPS screens. Do not let the low prices fool you as these are very capable machines. We here used to own a few Gen 8 101IT's and well, besides near flawless media playback, were just "meh". That is no longer the case as the 97 Titanium comes with a 9.7" 2048x1536 pixel screen, Dual Core 1.6 Ghz A9 CPU, and a Mali 400 GPU. Even better, you get FULL HD 1080P HDMI out, 2 USB Ports (1 host and 1 to connect to your PC) and a MicroSD slot that is compatible with up to 64GB cards! All this at a little over a pound! After the Jump, ARCHOS' Craig TerBlanche walks us through the Titanium line!

Archos is releasing a cute little tablet designed just for the tykes. This cute little 7" tab is rocking a 1GHz processor, 1GB of RAM and Ice Cream Sandwich. Now you can let the jealousy really settle in because the price? A mere $129. The downside? You'll have to settle for a kid friendly version of Appslib because the Android Market is nowhere to be found. Full PR after the jump
