gh? Man, I don't know if/where you learned to speak French but that is so not the way it sounds when it's spoken. True, it is a guttural sound which has no English equivalent. It's more akin to hocking up phlegm, as in faire, regarder, cravat, travaille, grand. Look up some pronunciations online. ]]>Jun 12th 2009 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 4:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 4:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/

However resistive multitouch > capacitive multitouch.

I'm used to the iPhone's keyboard, while not perfect it's good enough where I can type on it pretty quickly and accurately for the most part.

I'll definitely be following this device on the road to October.]]>Jun 12th 2009 4:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/

6 hours of video life, 30 hours audio.

I will definitely consider replacing my 705 with this new one, I just want Archos to go with larger HDD space. 160 GB doesn't cut it.

Perhaps it won't suck because Archos is not designing the OS this time around.

In short:

Blow me, Archos. ]]>Jun 12th 2009 5:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 6:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 13th 2009 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 5:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 6:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/Jun 12th 2009 5:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/12/video-archos-9-pctablet-resisitive-touch-screen-impresses/
But it sure makes up for that cumbersomeness by looking pretty modern/sharp and being narrow.

"In fact, the ASUS Eee PC T91 also features an 8.9-inch resistive display that does support mult-touch."

The guy in the video didn't specify that the T91 he played with had a resistive screen, and also he was told that the final T91 won't be shipping with the multitouch screen, so chances are the that was a special prototype fitted with a capacitive touchscreen.
