First stab at a video iPod?
Matt Haughey of PVRBlog has had the good fortune to play with Alaska Air's in-flight entertainment system, the digEplayer 5500. He seems impressed...
Overall, I had a great time using the device and it helped my five hour flight feel a lot shorter...After playing with the digEplayer for a few hours, I'm wondering why these units aren't widely available for movie and television show fans. The most obvious reason would be that Hollywood doesn't want you to make a copy of your purchased DVD for your handheld, nor do they want you to download a TV show you taped for playback on another device.
There's an interview with the devices creator over at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. He got the idea while working as a baggage handler!
