Android 2.3.1 and the Archos Arnova 10g2

Been doing a bit of research in the last few days to set up my Android tablet (Archos Arnova 10g2) for development of Apps for the Android Market.  Generally quite impressed with the tablet for the price I paid for it, although I have been experiencing a few problems (like others) with the small area set away on the device for applications and their data.  Thankfully there seems to be a large community of users on the Internet for support and other details, on top of this the Archos support sight is fairly open with details on how to work with the device.

Now that I have got the device working properly and know my way around it I can hopefully begin development on some apps.
