Fujitsu displayed at World PC Expo a recently developed digital music player that uses Bluetooth to create a wireless link to a database of music stored on a personal computer.

The AirJuke, which is currently only available as a peripheral to Fujitsu-registered PC users, is roughly the same size as a digital music player but doesn't have an internal memory or memory card slots to hold music files.

Instead, the device accesses digital music files stored on a matched PC via the wireless Bluetooth connection.

Device Details

It has buttons that allow the music to be played, stopped, fast forward, or rewound and a small LCD on the front of the device provides details such as the title and artist of the track being played.

It has sockets that allow it to be used with either a pair of headphones or connected to an audio system, measures 3.8 inches by 1.5 inches by .9 inches and weighs 2.6 ounces, including batteries.

The AirJuke costs $110 and at present is available only to people who buy their PCs from Fujitsu and register for its Azby Club.

A company representative at World PC Expo said Fujitsu has no current plans to expand sales.
