At a time when legislation is being
tightened up to restrict the use of mobile phones while driving, due
to safety concerns, people are aggressively looking for innovative
products which can help them use their mobile phones without even
touching the phone.
IDLDPL has launched Parrot CK3100,
which can offer as much connectivity as required while driving. The
biggest advantage of this product is that Parrot CK3100 wirelessly
connects with all Bluetooth phones available in the market.
Furthermore, IDLDPL, the largest distributors of lifestyle products
in India, announced the launch of this next generation Parrot CK3100
Bluetooth car kit in the Indian market.
The display of Parrot CK3100
provides visual information and functions similar to the mobile
phones such as caller ID, carrier signal strength, or last calls
received, in large well-contrasted digits, easy to read at a glance
on the screen which can be clipped in an ideal position for the
driver to see.
You just need to turn on your car's engine and the phone connects
wirelessly to the Parrot CK3100 car kit. The screen unit has
easy-to-navigate menu options just like your mobile phone, and your
mobile phone book is wirelessly downloaded to the car kit.
Calls can be dialled either through the screen, or by using
voice-recognition speed dialling. According to your phone's model
and firmware, most features are accessible from the hands free
console, including one-touch redial, dual call, as well as
auto-answering options.

Speaking on this new class of products, Surinder Saini, brand
manager for Parrot at IDLDPL, says, “Parrot CK3100 car kit is one of
the most advanced Bluetooth devices for car users. Every self-driven
car owner must have this product as it is safe and provides no
distraction because of its voice-recognised dialling and receiving
capability; just tell the name of the person, you need to talk, you
are online. Whether it is legal or illegal, it is a secondary thing,
but it is a fact that everybody receives and makes calls while
driving and why not you do it without any hassles? It is
particularly a must for the business executives who are at the
wheel. I believe this product will catch a very large market in a
short span of time."
