GN Netcom's Complete Mobile Product Line Means True Hands-Free Safety; Increased Productivity for Mobile and Cordless Telephone Users NASHUA, N.H., Nov. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- GN Netcom, Inc., a world leader in wireless headset and hands-free voice-transmission technology, today announced the M50 headset, the newest addition to the GN Express series-compact, affordable headsets designed specifically for the mobile telephone market. The M50 is a stylish, light-weight headset that stores easily in a briefcase, purse, or pocket. Created especially for the active, mobile professional, the M50 is easy to put on with one hand with no adjustments needed, a true safety feature if it becomes necessary to use the telephone while driving. As the headset is put on, the microphone boom on the M50 automatically aligns itself alongside the user's cheek. The M50 weighs less than an ounce and is so small it can fit in a pocket. This compact convenience means the M50 can be carried all the time, in the office, on the road, or at the airport.

Ferguson, vice president of sales and marketing for GN Netcom, Inc. "According to the Mobile Communications Service at Strategy Analytics Inc., there were more than 67 million cellular phone users in the United States alone at the end of 1998. With the continued growth in mobile-phone usage come safety and productivity concerns. Using a GN Netcom headset designed especially for mobile phones helps to answer those concerns." The GN Express series headsets were designed especially for mobile and cordless telephone use. Their noise-canceling microphones eliminate road and other background noise, and the unique Acoustic Director? positions the speaker-where the other person's voice is heard-right up against the user's ear. Both features combine for never-miss-a-word sound quality in almost every environment. The M50 joins the M200 in the GN Express mobile line up. The M200 has a GN Netcom high-quality noise-canceling microphone and a flexible, easy-to- position, full-length microphone boom. The lightweight M200 offers two wearing styles, a stable headband and a comfortable earpiece. It also has outstanding sound quality and the earpiece can be put on with only one hand. To accommodate a headset, most mobile phones are equipped with a 2.5mm headset port. Mobile phones without this built-in port require an adapter. GN Netcom has now broadened its mobile-phone offerings to include adapters for common phones such as Nokia and Ericsson that do not currently have built-in headset ports. GN Netcom offers headsets for mobile-phone use at all price points and in many styles and sizes to offer busy users comfortable ways to talk hands-free, no matter where they are and no matter what they're doing. In addition to the GN Express series headsets, the Stratus Mobile, Optima Mobile and Profile Mobile are also available from GN Netcom. These professional quality headsets are technologically advanced to suit any mobile-phone user, in any professional or personal environment. The Stratus Mobile comes with two wearing styles: an ear capsule and a headband. Professionals on the go can quickly switch between the styles for variety and comfort, depending on where they're working. The sleek Profile Mobile is perfect for the mobile professional. In addition to outstanding sound quality, the Profile Mobile is offered with three different wearing styles-earhook, earloop, and headband styles. The Optima Mobile is the choice of active professionals who wear headsets all day and who need outstanding comfort plus the assurance of a secure fit. All of these GN Netcom headsets and adapters for mobile use are widely available through GN Netcom distribution partners as well as at Office Depot and Staples stores under the Fellowes brand. They are all appropriate for business or personal use, and GN Netcom has kept them affordable, with the manufacturer's suggested list prices ranging from $29.95 for the new GN Express M50, to $49.95 for the GN Express M200, and $82 and up for professional grade solutions.
