Headsets Feature EarClick Technology in Multimedia and Communication
Earbuds for Maximum Comfort and Versatility
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- CellPoint Connect AB, developer of
high- end Bluetooth headsets today announced the launch of the Flamingo
Wired Headset line featuring the Flamingo Music and the Flamingo Mobile
versions at the 2008 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las
Vegas, Nevada. The Wired Headsets have been recognized by the CES
Innovation Awards and feature the comfortable and secure fit of the
EarClick wearing technology. The headsets will be available in a variety of
colors and will be on display at CES, the world's largest annual trade show
for consumer technology, January 7-10, 2008 at Booth #72467 at the Sands
Convention Center.
The EarClick wearing technology has earned a multitude of accolades for
its unobtrusive design that fits the outer ear, creating a secure but
weightless fit that minimizes the "wearer's fatigue" of traditional
headsets. The headsets come with a patent-pending system of six adjustable
pads, providing a customizable fit. The Wired headsets are optimized for
active lifestyles, as the EarClick design provides a secure fit that moves
with the user and stays secure during a variety of activities, including
running and biking. Furthermore, EarClick allows outside air and sound to
flow into one's ear, ensuring situational awareness in addition to
preventing the build up of pressure, sweat, and unhealthy conditions that
are problematic in traditional in-ear wearing styles.
"The release of the Innovation Honoree Wired Headsets is the first step
in the expansion of CellPoint's portfolio since the successful acquisition
and merger of Gennum's headset business unit," said Katarina Henriksson,
CEO of CellPoint Connect AB. "The addition of Flamingo Music and Flamingo
Mobile to our product line represents a major step in bringing the comfort
of EarClick technology to a wider demographic."
Flamingo Music is designed for use with iPods(TM), MP3 players and
other music devices, home and personal audio and video systems, and console
and portable gaming systems. The Flamingo Mobile headset, designed for
iPhones(TM) and other multimedia-capable phones, includes a microphone for
communications applications which adds the ability to make and receive
phone calls as well as enjoy superb stereo sound from multimedia
applications. The headsets also have acoustically modelled enclosures to
maximize audio performance and minimize frequency loss.
The Wired Headsets will be featured within the expanding CellPoint
lineup at CES, January 7-10, 2008 at Booth #72467 at the Sands Convention
Center, as well as an advance look for the press at CES Unveiled on January
5th.
