I don’t know why I sometimes look at Archos. I must be diseased. Trying to figure out that company and its confusing array of products invites madness.
Nevertheless, they’ll be at CES next month and will probably again display a bunch of tablets that will never appear — or appear too damned late for anyone to care.
One such tablet has a designation of “79” at the FCC.
According to the FCC filing, there is no Chinese source for this tablet (unlike a prior one), and the label says:
Designed by Archos in France&USA Assembled in China Model AC79PL
I believe this is the new Archos 79 Xenon.
And it’s an outright iPad Mini clone.
