GIDI Digital Jukebox offers 80GB of MP3

Reality Media has released an 80GB MP3 player called the GIDI Digital Jukebox. Offering such ample capacity for a digital music player is not the only thing interesting about this unit. What also attracts us to the player is that it comes in three disparate case styles, in three different sizes, to serve both consumer and commercial needs. All GIDI players are also available in 20, 40 and 60GB models.

The GIDI XL (Inox Metal Design) for home and office use is encased in a sleek silver box, the unit looks like something from the Bang and Olufsen school of design, with its stoic, teutonic appeal. Think of a Skagen watch and you get the idea. This unit aims for the home stereo system, resting somewhere above the amp and the CD player.

Measuring a svelt 20 cm X 10 cm X 5 cm (7.8″ X 3.9″ X 1.9″) the player comes with an external power supply and an LCD display for navigating through the song list. The GIDI XL sells for $768 US for the 80GB model, $608 for the 60GB model, $581 for 40GB, and $504 for 20GB.
