One of the biggest gripes about the Android-based Archos 5 tablet is the hoops one must jump to install apps.\u00a0 With no official Android Market support, crafty users are forced to hack their tablets or side-load apps. That’s not the easiest thing to do when there are nearly 50,000 apps out there.\u00a0 A known workaround called Market4Archos allowed users to access free applications in the market.\u00a0 Paid apps, however, were left in the dust.\u00a0 Until a recent firmware update that is.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

I don’t know why, but suddenly I’m getting paid-for apps listed under Android Market after the update. Cool!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Users with firmware version 1.7.99 have been reporting<\/a> that paid apps are showing up in the Android Market.\u00a0 Be advised, you must still have a hacked Archos 5 to get to these applications.\u00a0 The firmware doesn’t simply add the Android Market to the device.<\/p>\n
