Great but big drawback...

 

Lovely solid built device - fits in the palm of the hand perfectly and feels well built. It was quick to load and fairly quick to function.

So Many issues where do I begin?

 

On the phone with Archos tech support now because the tablet has died and froze countless times and reboot and recovery does not work. It's a shame because its a very nice tablet and I had high hopes for it, but instead we are extremely disappointed....

Battery Life
