  Parrot Links with Cell Phone Users Via the Launch of mobile.parrot.com

 Parrot breaks new ground to communicate more effectively with millions of
                           mobile internet users

    LAS VEGAS, April 1, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- Parrot, a leader in wireless
mobile telephony devices, has announced the launch of a website for mobile
users, mobile.parrot.com . With this mobile version, the main content of
the Parrot website is now just a click away, wherever visitors happen to
be.

    With the new site, multimedia mobile phone users can access Parrot
product photos and data sheets, the latest Parrot news, lists of retailers
who carry Parrot products and all the contact information and addresses for
Parrot and its subsidiaries. Also, through a partnership with vpod.tv,
users will have the ability to stream videos and download content in 3GPP
format.

    The site has been specially optimized for the latest cell phones, such
as the iPhone(R), Nokia N95, HTC Touch, HTC TyTN II, as well as Internet
tablets and PDAs.

    "More and more people are using their mobile phone for Internet access,
whether it's checking email, making purchases, or following their favorite
sports teams," explains Henri Seydoux, CEO and founder of Parrot. "With the
launch of mobile.parrot.com, we are able to move closer to our mobile
customers, giving them the ability to look up Parrot's latest product
information wherever they, whenever they want."

    The new site also makes life easier for Parrot representatives and
partners by giving them the ability to access and show demos of all the
products that they are working on, including Parrot Bluetooth(R) digital
photo frames, wireless speakers, hands-free kits and car stereos. The
website conveniently provides Parrot field representatives who are far from
their PCs the ability to easily access information on the entire Parrot
product line directly from their mobile phones.

    To access Parrot's mobile site, users will need a cell phone with a
mobile web browser and then simply bookmark the following address:
mobile.parrot.com or m.parrot.com .

    ABOUT PARROT

    Founded in 1994, Parrot has rapidly established itself as a pivotal
global player for wireless mobile telephone accessories. Drawing on its
tried-and- tested expertise on voice recognition and signal processing
technologies, Parrot was one of the very first companies to produce
Bluetooth(R)-enabled wireless hands-free car kits, having identified this
standard's vast potential as early as 1999.

    Determined to accompany the mobile telephone's irresistible
breakthrough into our day-to-day lives, Parrot has been developing a new
range of Multimedia products since 2006, including wireless hi-fi systems
and LCD photo frames.

    Today, Parrot truly has a major international focus, both in terms of
its client base, with 86.6% of sales generated outside of France, and in
terms of production, outsourced to carefully selected partners, enabling it
to achieve the best possible level of quality and responsiveness. Parrot is
now particularly well positioned to capitalize on the bright future opening
up for mobile telephone devices.

    Parrot has seen sustained growth in its consolidated revenues, which
have tripled since 2005. In 2007, Parrot sold over 5 million product units
and generated 220 million Euros in revenues, up 32% on 2006.
