Android 2.2 update for the Archos Android tablet family has arrived. The Archos tablets getting the FroYo sweetness are 28/32/43/70/101. Archos is updating the tablet straight to Android 2.2.1. The new update brings compatibility to Flash® 10.1 but does not include the Flash® plug-in. So you will have to wait until it is available with Archos. You can find more about update here.
