Archos 2 PMP US Availability Imminent Successor to Archos 105 at Last Official in US

Although prospective purchasers in the US have been already able to
pre-order the new Archos 2 portable media player, which serves to
supersede the Archos 105 PMP, via Amazon it's nice to see Archos at last
get around to officially launching their new flashed based portable
media player in the US with their new Archos 2 finally being listed via
their online shopping portal.

The Archos 2, which measures in at a mere 9mm in thickness and which
sports a 1.8 128 x 160 resolution display, comes in 8GB and 16GB
capacities with additional capacity being facilitated thanks to an
integrated microSD card slot and offers MP3 and WMA file format support
as well as built in FM tuner as well as voice recording capability,
allowing for voice memos, and comes in both black and white (no pink, as
yet).

The 8GB Archos 2 is set to retail in the US for around the $60 price
point whilst the 16GB Archos 2 should come in at around $100 though its
interesting to note that Amazon, unlike Archos's online shopping portal
(which merely lists the device as 'coming soon'), already list the
Archos 2 as available to pre-order though, as yet, an exact shipping
date is unavailable.
