Archos Announces Archos9 Windows 7 Tablet UMPC [9" Netbook in Tablet Form With Atom Processors/VGA Out/Wireless]

Renowned for their PMP devices, the good folks from Archos have just introduced a new Windows 7 tablet UMPC, dubbed Archos9. A netbook in disguise with a tablet form, the 16mm thick Archos9 runs on an Intel Atom Z515 processor at 800/1200Mz, has a 9″ 1024 x 600 screen, 1GB of RAM, 802.11b/g Wireless, a built-in 1.3mpix webcam, VGA out, dual DVB-T antennas and 3G option.

But more than you expected Archos 9 runs on Windows 7, features a pretty large 2.5-inch 120 GB hard drive and also comes with built-in Bluetooth 2.1. Considered the MiniPC of the future, extremely thin at just 0.63-inches and extremely light weighing only less than 0.8kg, the stylish UMPC is slated to sell for something close to 500 Euro (some $700 at today’s rate) and should be available this autumn (September or October).

A bit pricey, eh?
