IOGEAR Announces Cord Free Comfort For Cell Phone Users [02-14-2005]


Introduces Bluetooth Wireless Headset

Irvine, CA – February 14, 2005 – IOGEAR now enables wireless, hands-free talking using Bluetooth enabled cell phones, with the launch of its Bluetooth Wireless Headset. Providing ultimate mobility, the headset allows people to talk without holding a phone up to their ear or dealing with the hassle of cables. Weighing only 0.286 Lbs (13 grams) the Bluetooth Wireless Headset is comfortable to wear and includes a secure ear hook. Easy to operate, the headset features volume control and a built-in re-chargeable battery for use of up to 100 hours stand-by, 4.5 hours talk time. Allowing for greater convenience, the wireless device works anywhere up to 33 feet (10 meters) away from a Bluetooth cell phone. Priced at $69.95, IOGEAR’s Bluetooth Wireless Headset is available immediately from all major catalog resellers, online resellers and selected retail outlets. The headset is compatible with any cell phone with Bluetooth 1.1 specifications that has a hands-free or headset profile. The entire package contains the headset, ear hook, hanging attachable string, charging power adapter and a USB charging cable, and is backed by IOGEAR’s one-year standard warranty. “We are living in a period of multi-tasking. People are constantly trying to accomplish two things at once, especially while talking on their cell phone,” said Miranda Su, vice president of sales and marketing at IOGEAR, Inc. “With the Bluetooth Wireless Headset, the hindrance of being attached to a mobile phone with a wire or attempting to balance your cell phone on your shoulder is over. Users now have the ability to walk around freely without thinking about their cell phone or noticing that it is even there.” For further information on IOGEAR products, please visit www.iogear.com.
