NASHUA, MA USA
    NASHUA, N.H., Nov. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- GN Netcom, the world leader in
hands-free communications solutions, today introduced the GN 2100 SureFit(R),
an ultra-lightweight series of headsets designed to deliver the clearest sound
quality and most comfortable fit available in professional headsets today.

    Available in both a SoundTube(TM) and noise-canceling model, the new GN
2100 SureFit(R) features the superior sound quality of GN Netcom's
revolutionary ATL (acoustic transmission line) technology and a flexible ear
hook for all-day wearing comfort.  GN Netcom's newly designed DuraFlex II
noise-canceling boom allows instant adjustment to microphone positioning yet
retains its original shape and flexibility through years of use.  Together,
these features improve transmit and receive sound quality and enhance user
comfort.  The results are an increase in productivity and reduction in headset
replacement costs.
    Weighing only one ounce, the new GN 2100 SureFit is the answer for
professionals in busy call centers and offices who prefer an on-the-ear style
headset, and value the clear, authentic sound quality that has made GN Netcom
an industry leader.
    "The 2100 series further exemplifies GN Netcom's commitment to technology
leadership in the professional headset market.  Simply stated, the 2100 series
redefines the meaning of voice tube technology in the call center market and
is the finest quality product available in this category," said P. Michael
Fairweather, president and CEO, GN Netcom, Inc., and executive vice president
of GN Netcom Group.
    GN Netcom introduced its innovative new SoundTube headsets after user
opinion survey results revealed concerns about voice distortion and voice fade
experienced with plastic voice tubes. The company engineered a revolutionary,
new, coated alloy tube that is finely calibrated using GN Netcom's Acoustic
Transmission Line (ATL) technology. The results were incorporated into the new
GN 2100 SoundTube to deliver the clearest, crispest sound available from a
professional headset product today.
    With the addition of the new GN 2100 SureFit, the popular new GN 2100
series now comes in a variety of models designed to accommodate virtually
every user's preference for microphone design and wearing style. Customers can
choose the monaural or binaural headband or the SureFit earhook; amplified or
unamplified depending on their phone system; and either the SoundTube
omnidirectional microphone boom or the noise canceling Flex boom. All GN 2100
series headsets are compatible with all GN Netcom amplifiers.
    The GN 2100 SureFit is available through authorized GN Netcom dealers and
distributors at manufacturers' suggested list prices ranging from $92-$135.
