Just as we'd heard, Archos (http://www.engadget.com/tag/archos/) is pricing the Ice Cream Sandwich slate at $250, though the company's currently running a deal where it's parting ways with the Elements slab for $20 less than MSRP -- naturally, this is a "limited time only" offer, and thus it could change at any given moment. Either way, that amount of greenbacks snags you an eye-pleasing 9.7-inch, IPS display with a run-of-the-mill 1GHz, single-core CPU and 16GB of built-in storage. Obviously the spotlight's still shining high onGoogle's Nexus 7 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/nexus-7-review/), so we're interested to find out how many of you think this is enough to make you look past the Jelly Bean (http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/android-4-1-jelly-bean-review-a-look-at-whats-changed-in-googl/) sweets -- do let us know in the comments below.
