Archos 10 raises questions about future of narrow-function devices
Mobile multimedia pioneer Archos is hedging its market bets by offering a low-cost mini-laptop capable of playing the same content as its media players.
One of the great unknowns of device evolution is whether emerging general-purpose mini formats will supersede special-purpose devices such as iPods and Archos's own media players.
The £349 Windows XP-based Atom-power Archos 10 mini-laptop has a 10.2in screen and a webcam for video calls.
In addition to the usual PC functions it offers access to the Archos media club for video downloads and access to music. The machine is also set up for easy access to web TV and radio stations.
