You can update your Archos device with the Android store application:

the most important idea is bang for the buck and what you want....
so consider cameras, 3g and resolution....

i personally chioce the nook color great choice one of sharpest picture resolutions out there now pretty cheap and a lot of choices for os lmage and roms great deal at 250.

one point that killd me is to use savey shopper you need a camera....

look this up makes a great selling point, but andrioid is about 2 years off form making a great tablet os....

there trying to carry over a lot of apps from linux and htc phones that dont work....

i think that tablets are a trendy item, but arm tablets/laptop are the future such as ASUS ARM TRANSFORMER / LEVONO IDEAPAD AND TABLET SLIDERS.... not yelling just making a point for u to look up those products on youtube sorry typing on my nook color....

cant put a link or bold text... typing is a bit hard on touch screen there small and my fingers are big bluetooth keyboard is what i need..., at this point android for the nook is not out snd will route it no big deal...


problems are with every os new vocabulary and a bunch of geeks telling u there smarter then u on these android forums....



the instructions on these forums are stupid and hard to follow i guess they heard of a numbering system like step 1, step 2 etc....


miss conceptions about this linux or other linux os's is that they are a complete os out the box ....

sorry to tel this to windows users u have to install additional ssoftware... sory but you can tailor linux to ur needs.... even cnn put out a article yesterday saying the feel u beta tester for these tablets cause some cost 500 bucks and are not complete...

i guess all 100,000 apps should come pre loaded

Look, I'm not sure how to break this to you, but there is a danger that this thread is already deteriorating to the point that it is of zero value to the Original Poster, and of no definable value to anybody else who has similar interests.

The OP's clear interest was in program development for Android and specifically in getting hardware inexpensively to support and give extra confidence to result obtained from an emulator. The OP knows that application that they are writing/intending to write, and it is clear to him, but not to you, whether, eg, a camera (or 3G, or whatever) is key to that application, and without it being key for anything the he wants, it is useless.

This doesn't address any problem that the OP has.

The OP has a history here, and you can easily see that he has a really extensive level of experience with Linux in various forms. It is unclear why you would think that this advice would help him, or anyone in the similar position, on their path to developing Android applications.

Not only impossible, but unhelpful too. No 'phone comes with enough memory to install all of the applications that are available, and it only confuses the issue of development.

Just to summarise; this thread was started for a particular purpose - how to get going in Android development, cheaply - and if you want a thread for personal likes and dislikes about Android or your particular favourite (or least favourite) Android device, it is off-topic here, and you should consider another thread for that, if you think that it is of sufficient general interest.

Good points salasi, any suggestions that a mod can implement? Amongst other things I can split OT posts into their own threads.


paulsm4,

You're the OP, what would you like done, if anything?

Lightbulb Try to get a SDK of a MCU

To develop an application running on Android, a SDK for a highend MCU is required.

Can anyone recommend inexpensive Android tablet for development and fun? (hdmi-out is a must, can anyone confirms claims that 3.1+ Android will support only screens with 1280x800 resolution)?
