Norwegian Railroads to Rent Archos PMPs on Board

As part of an entertainment upgrade on the railroads in Norway, NSB (Norwegian railroads) is said to be considering Archos players as part of the entertainment package.

The plan is to add power outlets and Internet to the trains on some routes in Norway to begin with. On top of providing Internet access there are talks of a media server on the train which will stream media (movies and so on) directly to the media players which will be possible to rent for each trip. The project is still in it's early stages and nothing is written in stone, but Archos is said to be the most likely choice for providing these devices. Archos have several WiFi capable devices and it's not clear which model will be used if Archos is chosen.
