Highly Recommended! The first Bluetooth handsfree car kit which allows you to place calls while driving and keeping your phone in your pocket.

The Parrot CK3000 allows you to exploit your travel time and convert it into a professional activity, especially when you are caught up in a traffic jam.

Based on Parrot's own technology and powered by its Chip "Parrot3", Parrot CK3000 provides robust Voice Recognition and performs Full Duplex Echo Cancellation, making it resistant to noise and double-talk. The user can place a call with his phone in his pocket or briefcase. Parrot CK3000 gives drivers hands-free and voice-activated use of every mobile phone supporting Bluetooth, regardless of manufacturer.

It can store up to 500 names and the voice recognition dialler uses the mobile phone automatically.

This product is a real revolution, more than a simple car kit, it brings you a new way to communicate in your car.

Interoperability tests of the palmOne Tungsten with the CK3000 have been successful. The Tungsten is Bluetooth-ready, and allows to wirelessly import phonebook entries from OBEX-compatible Bluetooth phones. You can place calls through the car kit by selecting any entry in the PDA's address book, without ever touching the phone. Supports voice recognition depending on the phone it is used with.

Please note: We recommend that you test the car kit before installation as they cannot be returned after installation. Please follow the installation instructions carefully and read all safety information.
