Archos has released its new tablet PC that will become company’s 9th version of Tablet PC. In this they are removing some old traditional inputs apart from some new innovative things. One of the most important changes in Archos 9 is it will feature a new Virtual Keyboard instead of the traditional keyboard. We’re not sure that it will go or not with keyboard less netbook because 9-inch screen with virtual keyboard may be insufficient space to accommodate but it will be seen when hands on.
