Archos 5 gets Donut and loses it
December 28, 2009
Folks who own the Archos 5 Android-powered Web tablet experienced a rather short-lived joy today - first, they received a new 1.6.08 firmware update which fixes a handful of existing features, only to have Archos pull the update from its website later on. Apparently, that was due to a last-minute major issue with the Web Browser, and they will spend the next few days flushing gremlins out of their system. Hopefully Donut will be available shortly after that before we roll into 2010 as it would be great to end the year on a good note.

Apart from that, you can now output substance via the Archos 5's TV-out capability via the battery dock or mini dock whether Standard Definition is your cup of tea, while HD videos can be handled through the HDMI mini dock and DVR station. The firmware update can be downloaded directly via its built-in device settings, or you can take the traditional manual updating route from the Archos website.
