    It appears to allow this if you have the adaptor (apparently sold separately) or if the camera uses a Micro SD card (unlikely?) then you can plug it into the slot in the tablet.

    The bar the arrows are in can be pulled down and it will give you an update on the current status of the app (Downloading, Installing or Installed). You can then click on each to launch the app for the first time or just hit the clear button to remove the notification that it has been installed. The apps will probably be installed so just head into the list of apps and they should all be there.

    You won't be able to put the SD card in the tablet from the sounds of things.

    To connect the camera to the table you will need something like this:
    http://www.archos.com/manuals/A70_EN_v1.1.htm#usb_host_cable

    It takes in the end of a USB cable that you usually stick into a PC (USB A Female) and makes it a smaller version (Micro USB B) so it will go in the tablet. Should be cheap enough and assume you'll get it in Maplin (maybe PC world).

    Actually this gender changer pack should have it:

    This one - USB A(F)-5pin(M) Adp - Order Code: L16BT
