Archos 5G and SFR Mi PC pricing update.

Posted on 24 October 2008, Last updated on 11 November 2019 by

Jenn (Pocketables) picked up the latest information on the Archos 5G and Mi PC from a few sites yesterday and it seems that Stuff magazine got some deets wrong. Pff! You can never trust these professional publications ;-)

The Archos 5G is 249 Euros with a 19 Euro/month. 500MB data limit then throttled. Unsibsidised it will be 449 Euros, exactly where I would expect it to be. The Mi PC (based on the Compal MID that you see in the Aigo and Gigabyte models) will also 249 euros on a 19/month contract but it seems that you have to use a mail-in rebate for that. The unsubsisided price is unknown.

There were also a couple of errors in the specifications that I’ve updated in the Mi PC product page. We’ll get the 5G in the DB ASAP.

    449 Euros for the Mi PC is around where the Expansys ever changing price on the M528 is.

    I guess the only problem with those outside France picking this up is that it will have an AZERTY rather QWERTY keyboard.

    The OS will be in French too, but there are probably going to be ways around that.

    No easy way around the AZWERTY though… :(

    atleast it has 3g . you could use keytweak to remap all the keys , but that would ugly. i take solace in the fact that the uk version will be black when it arrives , which will be on the 14th of november exactly . i know this becoz it says so on the expansys site and therefore it must be true.
