Microsoft Brings Zune - Halo® 3 Military Edition to Service Men and Women
Soldiers leaving for active duty on August 6 will be the first to receive the new Halo Zune devices
SEATTLE - Microsoft introduces a new brown version of the Halo 3-themed Zune exclusively for military service members. After receiving feedback on the popularity of the Zune players from U.S. soldiers, teams from Microsoft Zune and Microsoft's U.S. Federal business joined together to develop a special Zune – Halo 3 Military Edition, which comes packaged in a collectible Halo 3 box and will come pre-loaded with artwork, trailers, and music from all three Halo games. The device will be available exclusively at military retail stores beginning in August at discounted rates for military personnel and their families.

A group of soldiers leaving for active duty from the Baltimore Washington International airport on August 6 will be the first to receive the new Halo Zune devices. Microsoft contributed 300 of the new Zune players to the USO of Metropolitan Washington to be part of a special USO care package the soldiers will receive. While visiting the USO lounge at BWI, soldiers can use the Windows PCs at the lounge and a special Zune listening station to load their devices with additional content before their departure.

Parrot Bluetooth Car Kit from IDLDPL

Aug 13, 2007
IDLDPL has launched the Gen-Next "Parrot 3200 LC-COLOR PLUS' in the Indian market.

"Parrot 3200 LS-COLOR PLUS" is a Bluetooth-enabled, full-featured installed car kit with a large bright color TFT screen, and full duplex audio.
It pairs with up to 5 phones, stores up to 1,000 contacts, and supports 150 voice tags for true voice-controlled and hands-free calling. Once paired with a Bluetooth phone, it automatically synchronizes with the cell-phone address book. And while calling or receiving calls, the screen displays the person's name, phone number, and his/her photograph.

According to IDLDPL, the device makes for voice not to get distorted at all times, the reason being Parrot's latest digital signal processing (DSP) technology called Parrot Beamforming.

Parrot Beamforming utilizes advanced noise and echo cancellation technology in combination with two highly sensitive microphones, which help the system to identify and eliminate unwanted background noise while isolating the driver's voice.

The LS-COLOR PLUS looks almost like a MP4 player and has a TFT color display unit integrated with a pair of external microphones. The TFT can be adjusted for brightness and contrast. The color and user interface can be customized as per user preference.

Speaking on the occasion, Surinder Saini, brand manager for Parrot, IDLDPL, said, "Parrot 3200 LS-color plus Bluetooth car kit enriches our portfolio of Bluetooth devices. I think it is the perfect blend of technology and aesthetics at good price. Every self-driven car finds a definite value in 3200LS-color plus. The driver does not get distracted while talking through this wonderful Parrot device, thus concentrates on the road."

The product is available through most large retail stores and B2C Web sites for Rs 16,690 apiece.
