Re: Archos 5 Internet Tablet 500 Gig android device!

Want the 500 Gig to replace my MP3 player. The device will have internet via wifi when at home, or wherever there is wifi. Don't really need internet. I have had windows mobile for years without internet. Great for portable games, mainly emulators, GPS, and various utility software. I have a great electronic circuit calculator. Also use MS office a lot. I'm hoping there is something that can open and edit excel and word files for android, but if not, I'll just deal with it. As far as a pocket android device, I just want a modern pocket PC without the mandatory data plan.

My work van has a Tablet running Win XP tablet edition that sits in a dock with a keyboard, power supply, gps, and usb hub, and the tablet itself has an internal verizon air card. I don't pay the bill on that one. Unfortunately, I also can't install whatever software I want on it either. The GPS sucks, and I usually use my own when it can't find something or runs me into a dead end.
