By | September 11, 2003
 Nice, interesting story about an Alaska Airlines baggage handler who has come up with the digEplayer, a 2.4-pound, battery-powered unit can hold up to 30 full-length movies, hours of digital music, maps, cartoons, sitcoms, language courses and travel promotions. It’s an inflight entertainment system that will start appearing on Alaska Airlines next month: The units, which cost a little more than $1,000, will be provided free to first-class passengers. Passengers in the main cabin will be able to rent the media players for $10 or reserve them before boarding for $8.
