The other problem with tablets running 2.2 is that apps designed for tablets, will not be available on the market.”
The Hannspree seems to have the same 3rd party support as the Vega, which means that while it ships with 2.2, it can easily be upgraded to the full market and Gingerbread.
Not sure, but I don't think the Archos has been rooted.
*eta* - the Archos is running a 1gHz A8. The Hannspree is running a Tegra 2, which has the potential for being considerably faster (and the games on the Tegra platform really are very, very good).
Its interesting to note that nowhere on the datasheets do Archos state how much RAM is on the device. Which isn't surprising, as looking around its only on 256meg, which is the absolute minimum for Android. The Hannspree is touting 512meg, so will likely offer a considerably better overall experience.
