Archos teases world's slimmest tablet - GT10 XS.

Archos, the French manufacturer of tablet PCs, might not have as strong a presence in the Indian market, but on a global scale they manage to rank themselves up with some of the bigger players. They rank no.5 in the top 5 tablet manufacturers worldwide and in the European sector, Archos has quite a fan following and that accounts for a rather large market sum. Reports are claiming that that the European company has big plans to increase sales by more than half in 2012. The word is that Archos’ revenue could exceed 260 million Euros, this year after more than doubling to 171 million euros in 2011.

A recent video of an all new Archos tablet has been making rounds and getting quite a bit of attention from the community. Although, the video really doesn’t state anything too specific, the device portrayed certainly comes off quite sharp in terms of looks. The grapevine has it that Archos is working on a super slim tablet to take on the likes of the Samsung and Toshiba tablets. The device, called the G10 XS is slated to be in the 7.5mm depth league putting up ahead of the rest. It’s already being touted as the world’s slimmest tablet.

This should give the company and extended sales boost for the next half of the year. Archos CEO Henri Crohas had this to say - "Growth will continue at the same pace and this could also continue in the years to come."
