PhatNoise a segment first

Also available is the first-in-segment Mobile Digital Media Powered by PhatNoise system. PhatNoise is a wallet-sized, 40-gigabyte hard drive that installs in the Terraza's overhead rail system. The system's capabilities include:

+ Storing and playing back up to 10,000 songs in MP3, WMA or WAV formats
+ Storing and playing up to 40 movies in MPEG format (standard format for movies)
+ Storing and playing a combination of songs and movies
+ The ability to provide the software for playing classic video games
+ A voice-browsing interface - if the driver wants to listen to music, the system tells him or her over the radio speakers the song's name, allowing the driver to run through a list of stored music using steering wheel buttons
+ Listening to books, magazine or newspaper articles recorded on a PC
+ Allowing simultaneous listening to two entertainment sources
+ Transferring digital camera pictures through a USB port in the PhatNoise cartridge and playing them back on the DVD screen.

The PhatNoise system's hard drive cartridge is easily removable, so it can be connected to a home PC or laptop to download computer files for playback in the Terraza, giving passengers an unprecedented level of entertainment customization.
