AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Parrot, a leader in wireless
peripherals around the mobile phone, today announced that iPhone(TM) users can
now enjoy the advantages of Parrot's Bluetooth(TM) hands-free car kits.
iPhone(TM) users will enjoy crystal clear conversations directly through
their car speakers in hi-fi quality audio with an installed Parrot car kit or
music kit, both which allow drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and eyes
on the road.  The iPhone(TM) also supports the same automatic synchronization
of contacts available in all Parrot's car kits.
iPhone(TM) users can also go hands-free in their home or office (or car)
with the Parrot MINIKIT, a sleek portable hands-free speakerphone that fits
easily in a pocket or on a desk. The latest software that allows iPhone(TM)
usage with the Parrot MINIKIT is available at www.parrot.com where free
software updates for all Parrot car kits can be downloaded.

The Parrot PMK 5800 is a Bluetooth/FM-based portable plug-and-play device
that slips into a vehicle's 12-volt accessory outlet.  It handles both hands-
free phone calls -- and music streamed from a Bluetooth A2DP-enabled device
like a smartphone or iPod, or via a wired mini-USB connection.  Calls and
music are transmitted via an FM signal to the vehicle's stereo.  (Note: The
iPhone(TM) is not Bluetooth-enabled and will require a separate adapter to

About Parrot
Founded in 1994, Parrot has rapidly established itself as a pivotal global
player for wireless mobile telephone accessories. Drawing on its tried-and-
tested expertise on voice recognition and signal processing technologies,
Parrot was one of the very first companies to produce Bluetooth(R)-based
wireless hands free car kits, having identified this standard's vast potential
as early as 1999. In 2006, Parrot sold about 3 million units. Determined to
accompany the wireless peripherals' irresistible breakthrough into our day-to-
day lives, Parrot has been developing since 2006 a new wireless range of sound
and image products. Today, Parrot truly has a major international focus: 90.5%
of its sales are generated outside of France, and a large percentage of its
production is outsourced to carefully selected partners, enabling it to
achieve the best possible level of quality and responsiveness. Parrot is now
particularly well positioned to capitalize on the bright future opening up for
mobile telephone devices. Parrot has achieved strong growth in its
consolidated revenues, up from 80.9 million Euros pro forma in 2005 to 166.9
million Euros in 2006.    www.parrot.com

* The CK and MK range of installed car-kits as well as the Parrot MINIKIT
portable speakerphone can support the telephone and contact synchronization
functions of the iPhone(TM).  However, since the iPhone(TM) is not Bluetooth
Stereo (A2DP) enabled, it requires a separate adapter to stream music
wirelessly.  The Parrot RK8200 car-stereo (available in Q2) is totally
compatible with iPhone(TM).
