There is not a great deal of information about the Archos device available. Most of what there is seems to be thanks to Kevin Boone. He has put together some very useful information about this device. If I find any more useful sites, I'll add links here.
On these pages I'll be adding anything I discover about the device and some applications which I hope will be useful to others.
To compile any examples, you will need a cross compiler for the ARM and relevant SDKs. You can get all these from the Archos developer site.
