Try
http://www.archos.com/products/ta/archos_101it/tabletpc.html?country=gb&lang=en
Caveats:
This is not the new 101 G9, but equally it is now being discounted and
you can find it at reasonable prices.
The quoted Linux is not a full fat distro, and it looks like there is
quite a bit of digging and reading to roll the right build. Searches
reveal the distro website is stale compared with the actual state.
Installing the required for GNU/Linux open boot firmware invalidates
your warranty
I have no idea how the device would fare with a libre kernel.
