I have had the Archos 80G9 since Friday and I am really loving it. I just want for flash and my fav game to work properly. I know that HoneyComb came on the tablet. However, is there a way to downgrade to Gingerbread?

Sorry for the typo. I am writing in the dark... :)

So my question is why?. You do not describe what is the problem. Everyone I know who has Honeycomb has fewer problems with Flash and games. The bottom line answer is that Archos is limited to prior Firmware capable NOT prior OS. If the G9 FW was ever released in Gingerbread, you might be able to downgrade (NOTE: the might) But the Gen9 Archos was always Honeycomb cored with Ice Cream Sandwich on the horizon.
If I were you I would stay with 3.2.x, it is far more stable than any version of Gingerbread. There was a study that showed more problems with apps occur on Gingerbread than Froyo or Honeycomb combined. That is also why it likely had such a short life and offered by any tablet provider.
