A brilliant invention from Apple; the iPad is the newest addition to Apple's touch-based computers. An iPad is a unique invention positioned between the iPod Touch and a laptop computer. There was a lot of enigma and also a lot of hype surrounding its release as to what would be its utility and where would it fit in our life. Post its release it has already achieved huge popularity especially among Mac lovers and has become the preferred alternative for older devices.
An Apple iPad has a 9.7" multi-touch LED screen having a backlit display, with the keyboard of a regular computer being substituted for a virtual one. The device is 9.5" long, 7.5" wide, and 0.5" thick with a 1024x768 screen resolution. Working on an A4 processor, it has flash storage worth 16-64 GB, Bluetooth 2.1 and 802.11n Wi-Fi support. The device weighs 1.6 LBs and runs on a modified version of the iPhone OS, having a 10-hour battery life. Sleek and stylish, the device is made of a combination of reinforced plastic and aluminum. It comes priced at 9.

The Archos 5 Internet Tablet PC on the other hand is an android powered device with a 5" screen incorporated with all the internet related features essential today. With a screen resolution of 800x480, the Archos 5 has a sleek design, but its real value is the software it runs on. It has Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth and USB 2.0. Other applications include email, contacts, web browser, Droid In, Twidroid, Ebuddy IM, Dailymotion, Quickpedia, calculator, alarm clock etc. With a flash memory of 8 to 32 GB, for those requiring additional storage there is also the option of 160 or 500 GB hard drive. The device comes priced at 0 for an 8GB version and 0 for a 500GB Archos 5 tablet PC. Powered by an ARM Cortex A8 processor @ 800 MHz, it can be compared to the 600 MHz processor found in iPhone 3GS.
The main difference between the iPad and the Archos 5 is that while the former has a LED screen with 1024x768 pixels display, the Archos 5 has a non-LED display with a screen resolution of 800x400 pixels only. But with its Android OS, the video quality of the Archos 5 is quite good. Using a 'resistive touch technology' the Archos 5 lacks on two aspects. Firstly, the tactile sensation is not that good with the finger sticking and causing a smudge. A sliding movement across the screen also requires greater pressure.
Secondly, the Archos 5 Internet Tablet does not support multi touch. On the other hand the iPad has a multi-touch screen with far better resolution, effects and amazing clarity. With a 9.7" display while the iPad does not exactly fit into a pocket, with a 5" display the Archos 5 technically does fit in a pocket. Again, the biggest drawback for the Archos 5 is that it offers no Mac support.
