i purchased an 8gb Archos 101 from Tigerdirect day before and it ships out tomm! They are hard to find, you'd be lucky to come across one, just dont' wait to get it if it is available.

The bottom line is the vendors all got a limited number and a updated shipment mid-December 2010. The 16Gb units have not arrived in any quantity at all. There are likely a few vendors who still have some 8Gb. but it is a treasure hunt.

Best of Luck

Being the impatient person I am, I picked up a G Tablet today @ Sears. If it doesn't work out then I'll return it and get the Archos. Best of luck to all.

Got it from Academic superstore, should be delivered in 7-10 days.
They say they've everything (but the 70 8 GB).
Internet Tablets by ARCHOS from $299.95 at Academic Superstore
The reviews on this site are mixed, does anyone have a personal experience?

They have 2 listings on www.bbb.org. Both are accredited. One has no reviews and the other is A+. So take it for what it's worth I suppose.

J&R Music has them on pre-order too. I have not heard of any US online or brick & mortar store having them in stock. Also, I could not find the 7o & 101 at TigerDirect.com.

I wonder why Archos is not picking up on the fact that there seems to be considerable interest in this tablet and do something to goose production so that the units become available before xmas? Are they not interested in revenue? Or is demand simply outstripping all attempts to get manufacturing geared up to the point where they steadily send out shipments of the units?

What I find incredible is that the archos.com web site isn't even making any attempts to be honest about all of this and meet all inquiries with dead silence. Normally any company that doesn't want to lose business will at least make some level of effort to assure consumers that actions are being taken to resolve delivery problems. Is this perhaps just a form of French arrogance in the end? Or are they so self-assured that they believe that they can simply ignore the consumer?
