Live life hands-free with the Jabra FreeSpeak 250: Bluetooth Mobile Headset

Johannesburg, 21 Nov 2004

Kathea Communications, the market leaders in distributing integrated telecommunication solutions to the ICT sector, has been appointed as a local distributor of the Jabra FreeSpeak 250 headset. This attractive product is the ideal solution for the mobile professional, as it allows users to enjoy all the benefits of hands-free and cord-free conversations on their Bluetooth cell phone.

"Jabra is the world`s leading provider of hands-free communication solutions for the mobile consumer market", says Gerard Vanden Bergh, Jabra Division at Kathea. "The Jabra FreeSpeak 250 keeps the unique, comfortable and practical, behind-the-ear design of the Jabra BT200, which has become the World`s best selling Bluetooth headset."

"Bluetooth technology has arrived and its impact can already be seen in the vast amount of wireless devices entering the communication space", says Vanden Bergh. "With the Jabra FreeSpeak 250, the standard has been set by which other Bluetooth headsets will be judged and this product will continue to strengthen Jabra`s position as market leaders in mobile communication."

Smart, stylish and lightweight

The Jabra FreeSpeak 250 incorporates significant improvements in performance, most notably in talk time, which is extended up to 8 hours and standby time is now up to 240 hours or 10 days. With its longer battery life, the Jabra FreeSpeak 250 will appeal to busy mobile users where comfort and performance are vital. Its soft elastomer body weighs just 23 grams and is designed to fit naturally and securely behind the ear.

Sound-absorbing material reduces distortions resulting in crisp sound quality. The headset features a uni-directional microphone for clear voice pick-up and the unique Jabra MiniGel channels sound directly into the ear for superior clarity and reception. Coupled with this, the headset includes audio design, to amplify voice and reduce background noise providing great sound quality at both ends of the call.

"Conversations in the car are much more convenient with the Jabra FreeSpeak 250 - you can make and receive calls cordlessly via the headset at the touch of a single button", adds Vanden Bergh. "The Jabra FreeSpeak 250 supports both Bluetooth headset profile and hands-free profile."

Using different profiles, users can enjoy cordless connection to their mobile phones without losing any of its extended functions up to a range of 10 metres. Features such as call transfer and last number redial are conveniently accessed via a single button on the headset that also allows the wearer to adjust volume and activate voice dials, answer and end calls.

"Business Communication is going mobile. South Africa has the innovation, motivation, technology and critical mass to create sustainable business models, and any company who is not working to assimilate mobility as a concept will be left behind. Business professionals are starting to realise the Jabra FreeSpeak 250`s potential - it is definitely a product no business executive can afford to be without", concludes Vanden Bergh.

The Jabra FreeSpeak 250 in summary:

* Up to 8 hours talk time, up to 240 hours/10 days stand-by time
* Comfortable and practical behind-the-ear design
* Appeals to busy users where performance is vital
* Weighs just 23 grams
* Superior clarity and reception using Jabra MiniGel
