Archos has been putting out some seriously cool MIDs with the Archos 5, not to mention their PMP market with the Archos 2 Vision, Archos 3 Vision and the Clipper. Behold the unveiling of the Archos 1 Vision.

Perhaps behold is too strong of a words, as it is simply a 4GB PMP with a 1.5 inch LCD screen for about 20 hours of life per charge. There is no video support, but what do you expect for about $45? If you want it, it will be available in Europe by the end of November.

Archos has made a good move by presenting some details of their upcoming Android phone tablet, which will be release sometime in the near future… The first time we mentioned this phone was in Fevruary, so it shouldn’t be too long until we see it on the marketplace.

Anyhow, the sliding phone will feature a 4.3-inch touchscreen that provides a resolution of 854×480, and boasts a 1GHz processor which should be more than enough for the most memory-consuming tasks. In terms of size, it has 10mm of thickness which isn’t too bad. Sadly these are the only details that Archos revealed, at least for now.

For people who are familiar with the Archos 5, the expected released of the Archos A5S and A5H Internet tablet may be a familiar-looking device. And with rumors that it has gained FCC approval, it looks like the two new Internet tablets are bound to come out soon. It is said that these new devices will be officially announced on September 15.

Only a slight redesign which includes new locations for the speakers and headphone jacks headline the new Archos Internet tablets. Add to that the inclusion of a microSD slot, the Archos A5S and A5H include a ton of features that one would expect to get from mobile devices today. This includes:

• 802.11b/g/n WiFi
• Bluetooth 2.1+EDR
• FM Transmitter and Receiver

The new Internet tablets do look promising. And from the looks of it, a lot of eager eyes are waiting to see the actual announcement from Archos next month.

If you liked any of the previous Archos PMPs then you will surely love the Archos 3 which is about to be announced soon. The new media player comes with a large 3-inch touchscreen and a 8GB flash drive. There’s a new virtual wheel selector to take you through all the features and you will be able to watch movies or listen to your favorite songs in no time. Other features include audio recording, a calendar and a stopwatch. Unfortunately there aren’t that many official details about this Archos 3 yet so we can’t tell you when to actually go ahead and purchase it.

Archos has scheduled a press conference in Paris for June 11 and everyone is suspecting that an Android tablet is going to be announced on that occasion. We’re assuming that the new Archos device will have a 5-inch screen, 500GB of storage, 7 hours of battery life, voice support, HSUPA connectivity, TV recording, HD playback, Adobe Flash support and an OMAP3440 processor.

However none of that has been confirmed yet and all the info we have so far comes from way back in February when TI leaked the 10-mm thin Archos Internet Media Tablet. The new device should arrive sometime in the third quarter for an undisclosed yet price.

It’s not only Android handsets that we’re waiting for this year. Archos is supposed to launch an Android MID and the device seems ready to arrive in July. The company openly declared that the Android MID is coming “at the start of Q3 2009″ but failed to mention official specs and prices. We’re expecting it to bring all those Archos multimedia applications combined with some phone capabilities.

Is it a phone? Is it a laptop? Is it a MID? Whatever it is, it’s made by Archos and it will supposedly run on Android. Archos might even go ahead and launch this one at the MWC.

The press release says this “Internet Media Tablet” will work as a phone too and it will use a new OMAP3 processor. We’re looking at a device that sports a 5-inch screen, up to 500GB hard drive, a battery capable of 7 hours of video playback and Flash support. Well it had me at 500GB hard drive. Now I’m really curious to see how it really looks like. Yeah, the picture doesn’t display the real thing yet. We’ll all have to wait until Q3 to get it but MWC might show it to us.
