Archos 101

Would have posted this in the tablet style device thread but thought the Samsung galaxy Tab and the ipad have their own lol

Recieved mine today first impressions below

Device arrived with 2.2.1 firmware
Build quality is better than I expected
Flash 10.1 installs and full youtube videos play fine ( only tested a couple)
Marketplace easy to install
Apps missing from marketplace
Default browser works ok Installed opera mini from apk as opera is missing from market. Firefox is to slow and crashes. Web browsing fairly quick hard to decide which I prefer
Device is snappy enough but lags when there is sync or downloads
Asphalt 5 HD could not see my external microsd although device accesses it fine
3d tested with raging thunder 2 =nice
Simpsons HD cap in AVI format = Nice
WMV8 files do not play with default player
Media lib update takes to long
Installed rockplayer for missing codec support
screen shows up finger prints bad
Needs a root for the device
