Jabra launches the Freeway in-car Bluetooth speakerphone

Jabra from GN Netcom have recently announced the Jabra Freeway in India, which is supposed to be the world’s first 2.1 stereo in-car speakerphone. The Jabra Freeway features a three-speaker system with full stereo and virtual surround sound (AM3D) capabilities. With Bluetooth capabilities, this speakerphone can be used inside, as well as outside the car for both calls and music as it can be connected with any two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. These devices include laptops, mobile phones, iPod, iPhone, iPad and even your Bluetooth- enabled gaming consoles.

Can be used with various portable devices

Speaking about the launch, Ms. Ann Goh, Regional Sales Manager of GN Netcom said, “Jabra Freeway is one of the best in-car speakerphones that Jabra has launched till date. Integrated with advanced yet easy to use features, we position Jabra Freeway not only for the pro-sumers but also for affluent car owners who are looking for an in-car speakerphone replacement. Jabra Freeway also helps us achieve a socially benevolent objective as well – promoting responsible and accident-free driving. Not to forget the respite from the taxing and uncomfortable traffic police penalties that it offers.”

Being HD ready, Jabra claims that this will ensure that one’s conversations sound as natural as if they are standing right next to the person they are talking to.
