Edit: I neglected to tell you I used this Google Market hack. After a reboot I ended up with the latest version of Android market

However once you do that, only some of the apps appear.
Try searching for Copilot, Titanium Backup, or even any of the Home Replacements, like ADW Launcher or Launcherpro, nothing appears.
Here's a fix:
Go to your Application settings > Manage Applications > Running Tab
Find Market > Force Stop then Clear Cache (Do NOT press clear data)
Find Google Services > Clear Data then Force Stop
If you try to run Market now you will get a data connection error.
Reboot
Now you will see EVERYTHING on the market.
To test, do a search for Copilot, ADW Launcher, Launcherpro or Titanium Backup.
It worked great on my Archos 70 250GB Internet Tablet.

This project is dedicated to the installation of a stable Android Market and Google sync applications (calendar, contacts, etc).
In the simplest form, this is how you enable these products in your Archos Gen8 device.
1) Start with a FULL reset back to stock
2) copy gAppsInstaller.apk to your internal or sdcard
3) using the builtin 'Files' application, find and execute this application
4) choose 'Install only core apps'
5) once finished, REBOOT
That's it! Once your device boots back up, you'll have access to the Market as well as Google Sync services (Gmail, Contacts, Calendar, etc).
If you want Gmail, Maps, YouTube, etc, please download them from the Market.
