It’s basically as powerful (or more powerful) than a Tegra3 tablet, but at nearly half the price. The normal MSRP price is $399 so this is a good deal! It’ll support Ice Cream Sandwich through an official firmware update probably coming later this month. Support for US-compatible 3G/4G/LTE USB sticks is probably also likely to soon be announced.

I just checked the latest price on the Archos 80 G9 tablet, and wow, it seems to be just $269 now on this link:

It currently says:

Ships from and sold by CircuitCity.

But you can order it right there on Amazon.com.

The Archos 101 G9 1Ghz is also now for sale on Archos.com for $369 at this URL: http://store.archos.com/10070_101g9_landing.php

Consider that the 1.2Ghz Turbo version with 16GB and 250GB hard drive will also start becoming available later this month. And that the 1.5Ghz version should start being for sale around December normally. The faster Turbo versions having more storage will obviously be a little bit more expensive.

I hope to get my Archos G9 tablet within a few days, and then I’ll post my full video-review. For now you can see my short overview video that I filmed of early pre-release prototypes of these tablets last July:
