Archos 10s for just 195 Pounds at ASDA [Correction: It is Archos 10, not 10s]
ASDA is selling Archos 10s 10 for mere £195. However, keep in mind that this is with a 3-cell battery. So the battery life may not last more than 3 hours. I leave it to you to make out if it is a good deal for you or not.
Specs: Intel Atom N270, 10.2-inch 1024×600 display, WiFi, 3-cell battery and Windows XP Home
PS: It is for a limited period. So hurry!

Just received one of these Archos netbooks from Asda. Firstly it is NOT the 10s model but is the older 10 version in black despite the advertisments and the invoice saying it’s a 10s.
Also not sure if the one I have is normal or faulty but the wifi reception is cr4p. Any more than 6 ft from the transmitter and the signal drops rapidly. This means that I cannot use the internet in my living room with the Archos when I can easily do so with my HP laptop. Anyone else noticed this?
Also disappointing that the tracker pad does not have vertical scroll function like most others I have used. Not sure I will keep it at the moment due to the inadequite wifi capability.
This is cheating. You should return it to ASDA and ask for refund.
PS: I’ve updated the post. Thanks!
I am returning it and advising them to change their advertising as they are probably breeching the trades description act. Their web site specifically details the 10s and not the 10 that is supplied. I am also returning it because the Wifi is faulty. I also don’t like the keyboard, the keys do not have chamfered edges and so it is very easy to catch the edge of the key next to the one you want when typing. Some of the keys are tiny too, the return key and shift keys in particular. Overall it is not as good to use as the 8.9″ Acer ONE A150 I current have.
By the way, perhaps you should change the picture in this artical too, it still shows the 10s.
Thanks, pic correct now.
