Archos readying 9.7- and 8-inch versions of its 101 XS tablet

[![Archos readies 97inch and 8inch versions of the 101XS ][1] ][2]

Archos' new Coverboard-decked [101 XS][3] tablet isn't the end of its Android efforts for 2012. During our briefing, the manufacturer revealed that it has both a 9.7- and 8-inch model incoming. The duo are set to arrive before the end of the year, and will, aside from dimensions, pack the same list of features we saw on the [bigger model][4]. Each will come with its own, perfectly-sized keyboard cover and what's likely to be the same raft of connectivity options seen on [Archos][5]' first XS tablet. The 8-inch model (80 XS) will pack a 1,024 x 768 resolution screen, while the larger 9.7-inch slab (97 XS) will house a 1,280 x 800 16:10 screen, a ratio that differentiates it, if only a little, from the slightly bigger model unveiled today. Archos is keeping some vital points -- like pricing -- a secret for now, but we'll update with more details as soon as we hear them.
