NEW JABRA STONE 2 BLUETOOTH HEADSET GIVES USERS HANDS-FREE VOICE DIALLING AND CALL ANSWERING Voice guidance provides simple, quick set-up and pairing with mobile phone

Sydney, AUSTRALIA – 14 March 2011 –Jabra has launched the Jabra STONE2 hands-free headset. Building on the success of its predecessor, the Jabra STONE2 features an innovative voice system for dialing numbers for complete hands-free communication. Calls can be accepted or rejected by saying ‘answer’ or ignore’ for added convenience.

To further enhance usability, a Voice Guidance feature talks through the process of pairing the headset with a mobile or smartphone, streamlining the set up process. Voice guidance also announces when the headset is connected or low on battery, so users always know the status of the device.

The Jabra STONE2 offers a complete multimedia experience, with new streaming capabilities to allow users to listen to music through the headset or watch video clips and podcasts. Multiple Bluetooth-enabled devices can be connected at the same time thanks to advanced Mutli-use™ capabilities. The ergonomically designed Jabra STONE2 contours behind the ear, eliminating the need for a standard on-face microphone. It also includes a choice of four ergonomically-designed Eargels™, providing a secure and comfortable fit, customised for different ear shapes and sizes. In addition, the palm-sized wireless portable charger also serves as a compact carry case, so the Jabra STONE2 is always ready for use.
