Products Parrot SK4000 (coming out first half of 2008)
Bluetooth
hands-free kit for motorbikes and scooters
Phone in complete freedom
Ensure that you can be reached at any time on your scooter or motorbike.
The Parrot SK4000 is a Bluetooth® wireless hands-free kit designed
for making and receiving calls in complete safety on two wheels. Leave
your phone safe in your pocket or bag, and the kit automatically connects
to the phone by means of a Bluetooth link. The Parrot SK4000, the ideal
road companion, boasts over 10 hours' battery life in use and can be
recharged via its mini USB socket.
It speaks and recognises your voice
The Parrot SK4000 automatically synchronises its phonebook with the
contacts on your mobile phone. Updates are automatic as well. Calling
a contact could not be simpler: the Parrot SK4000 identifies the sound
of your voice and recognises the name of the person that you wish to
call. You can also browse through your phonebook thanks to the speech-synthesised
names (Text to Speech). Once the contact is found in the phonebook,
confirm to make the call. Easy!
Incredible
sound quality
Crystal-clear sound, even at high speed, thanks to Parrot's expertise
in handsfree kits. Even at high speed, your calls are still clear. The
volume of the calls and music automatically adjusts to suit your speed
and the surrounding noise for maximum listening quality.
Fingertip
control
For safe driving,
the Parrot SK4000 kit features an innovative wireless remote control,
which can be positioned on the handlebars and adjusted to fit any type
of handle. You can easily access all the kit's functions in an instant
without letting go of the handlebars: answer, hang up, choose the source,
and so on.
Speech and
music
The Parrot SK4000 also features an FM RDS tuner, a line-in socket and
Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) connectivity. To listen to the FM radio, scan
the frequencies using the remote control and the kit says the names
of the radio stations. Connect your MP3 players via the jack cable and
listen to your favourite playlists. The Parrot SK4000 is also Bluetooth
stereo (A2DP) compatible: your mobile phone can be turned into a wireless
music player. Two Parrot-designed sound effects will leave you stunned:
Virtual SuperBass and Stereo Widening. Give your journeys the sound
that they deserve!
For every
helmet
The kit can be
fitted to any type of helmet in just minutes. The microphone is mounted
on a flexible coupling and adapts to all varieties of helmet. The speaker(s)
is/are fitted inside using Velcro or tape.
This is
the only real video review out on the SK4000 right now so excuse the
intro and ads. We added the video as a courtesy, though the information
is really limited. Looks to be a nice product if you wear a helmet.
In Arizona, we don't have a helmet law for adults (only those 18 and
under are required to wear helmets) Call us about how we can modify
existing products to fit your needs.

Wireless technology
The Bluetooth wireless technology enables voice and data to be sent
via a short distance radio link. It connects a wide range of electronic
equipment without requiring additional cables. Furthermore, it extends
the communication possibilities for mobile phones and a large number
of devices. The Bluetooth Stereo (A2DP) profile uses the same short
distance radio frequencies to transport musical files from one peripheral
to another one.
