Which brings us to the Archos 7 Home Tablet, a $200 device available at Amazon.com. The Archos 7 is the first of several tablets coming to market that use Google Inc.’s Android operating system.
Now there’s a bright idea. Android-based phones like the Motorola Droid and HTC EVO 4G are excellent alternatives to Apple’s iPhone. Why not tailor Android to run on a tablet, just as the iPhone’s software has been superbly modified for the iPad? It could work — but not on the Archos 7, a product hobbled by its reliance on cut-rate hardware and a primitive version of Android.
