Well youtube has plenty of demo clips of the Archos 70, and some even show the HDMI output in use. It sure seems to do what I want from my next tablet. Now I'd like to hear (first hand opinion from an owner) or see (youtube) how it works with an attached keyboard (usb or bluetooth) while displaying on an HD TV.

Ever monotonous, I'm still trying to see if this could act as a make-do PC by plugging (or tethering) a keyboard and big screen display.

It is starting to look as if this might be the one, though.
