DigEcor Launches Portable IFE

DigEcor released the next generation lightweight, portable IFE (inflight entertainment equipment) system with an 8-inch TFT (thin film transistor) screen.

The digEcor IFE unit, dubbed the digEplayer XT, can be used by passengers to view DVDs in their seats, after swiping their credit card.  The device can accommodate a 60 gigabyte or larger hard drive, and has a USB (universal serial bus) 2.0 host port, plus two independently controlled headphone mini-jacks.

An optional 802.11 a/b/g wireless card can be added to facilitate uploads of movies, TV sitcoms, games, audio, credit card transactions, usage statistics, and more.

Optional adapters can also be added supporting AC, DC, and power over an Ethernet.  And the unit's modular accessory bay can be used for other options, including a 10-hour battery, or expansion.  04-17-2006.
