Archos unveils 9.7-inch Android 4.0 tablet...

Archos has revealed the 97 Carbon, a super-cheap Android 4.0 tablet with a 9.7-inch display (same as iPad's) for a little over what the Nexus 7 is being offered at. The tablet which will go on to retail for $249/£219, will be part of Archos's elements range (hence the name) which will include a 7 & 8-inch iterations in the future that may undercut the Nexus 7.

The exacts specs include a 9.7-inch display with a resolution of 768x1024, powered by a single-core 1GHz Cortex A9 processor with 1GB of RAM. The device has two cameras, a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera and a front-facing camera for video calling, it also has 16GB of internal storage that can be expanded using Micro-SD card (up to 32GB). The tablet runs Android 4.0 out of the box and is bound to be updated to Android 4.1 in the future.

Honestly, I'd test this tablet out before buying it but if you want a tablet that is almost 10-inches for a small price tag then this is the tablet for you.
