Jobo Giga-Vu

Rob Galbraith's website reports that JOBO just announced that an upcoming firmware revision for the Giga Vu Pro Evolution will add an on-screen loupe to the photo storage device for working photographers. The loupe will provide users of this mobile image storage device with a button in the unit’s zoom menu that makes a rectangular loupe appear on the LCD screen so photographers can closely examine important details of their pictures.

This model has a bright 3.7-inch screen (640 x 480 pixels) and is available in capacities of up to 120GB. It can also play movies and music files and has support for RAW files too. The street prices are about $500 for 40gb to $900 for 120gb.

In contrast, the new Epson p3000 (40gb) has a 4.0-inch screen (640-480 pixels) and is retailed at $490. I wouldn't be surprised if Epson didn't follow through with a firmware of its own.

The jury's out.
