We have had news about Android powered Tablet PC in the making. But, this time the news comes from Archos IMT. Archos is supposedly working on an Android powered Tablet PC, to be launched soon.

Tony Limrick, Managing Director of Archos Northern Europe, made this announcement at an event in London, and also asked the viewers to keep September 15 open in their calendar. So, is it supposed to be its launch day ? Possible.

The tablet seems to have quite impressive features. No clue was given by Tony Limrick on the day of the announcement, but a couple of months back, the possible features of the device were let out :

• 5-inch display
• 7.2Mb/s HSDPA
• 2Mb/s HSUPA
• 500GB of storage
• Ability to play HD movies
• Only 10mm thick
• 7 hours of video playback time
• 800MHz Texas Instruments OMAP 3440 processor described as “laptop-like”

If these specs are to be believed, then we have a really great device in the making. But, what would be the price of such an impressive device ? Are u ready to shell out a fortune for a tablet PC ?

Koolu, a Toronto based open-source soecialist, reported that it is going to ship the developer versions of Neo FreeRunner mobile phone running Google’s open-source Android 1.5 “Cupcake” operating system in two week’s time. Possibly, the consumer versions will be available in mid-July.

At this week’s Cloud Expo Europe conference in London, Koolu Chief Technology Officer Jon Hall reported to Zdnet UK, “We’re targeting businesses that want functionality in their phone that they can’t get from Apple, RIM, or any of the proprietary companies”. He also said that they are aiming at small and mid size business classes and the developing countries.
