Dell Mini 5 to Come with Amazon Books, Music, Video Capability.

This makes complete sense. Google provide the application channel and Amazon provide the content channel for the Dell Mini 5. This will set it apart from the rest of the bunch so Archos are going to have to think carefully about where they go next.
