Looks like the Archos 9 Windows 7 tablet has made it out of the labs (and controlled show floor settings) and into the hands of Crave UK, where that seemingly-amazing resistive touchscreen continues to impress — so much so that they initially thought it was a capacitive unit. We actually pinged Crave ed Nate Lanxon to find out what was up, and the real story appears to be a mystery — either Archos PR is mistaken in telling everyone that it’s a resistive screen, or the company has somehow improved the tech to the point where it’s virtually indistinguishable from a capacitive display. Given our experience with previous Archos resistive touchscreen devices that felt like mush, we’ve got to say we’re going with Occam’s Razor on this and that it’s really capacitive, but we’re definitely ready to be proven wrong — hey Archos, you feel like sending us a new toy to play with?
