It must be Arnova week at the FCC. Yesterday the Archos Arnova 9 G3 tablet showed up at the FCC website. Today it was followed by three more third-generation tablets in the Arnova family.
Archos uses the Arnova brand for its lowest-cost tablets, but all of the new tablets are expected to run Google Android 4.0 software. There’s not much I can say about the rest of the specifications though, since at least two of the new models have never been seen before.
The FCC documents show 2 new tablets with 7 inch displays, the Arnova 7b G3 and Arnova 7f G3. We’ve been hearing that the Arnova 7b would feature an 800 x 480 pixel display, 1GB of RAM, 4GB of storage, and a 1 GHz Rockchip RK2918 processor. But I don’t know a thing about the Arnova 7f aside from the fact that it supports 802.11b/g/n WiFi.
The third new tablet is the Arnova 8C 3G. Again, the only thing I know for certain about this tablet is that it supports 802.11b/g/n WiFi. But judging by the name and photo, I’m guessing it has an 8 inch display with a 4:3 aspect ratio.
why are tablets getting MORE expensive..
better hardware in general, perhaps?
