CellPoint into new markets with Flamingo
CellPoint Connect's revolutionary BlueTooth headset, Flamingo, which is used for wireless communication with mobile phones and IP telephony, among others in Skype, wins new markets. In the course of the last month, CellPoint Connect ApS signed distribution agreements with partners in 3 new and strategically important international markets: Japan, Singapore and Canada.
The three new authorized distributors are:
- Newtele Group Ltd., Canada
- Bluenext Technology, Japan
- Bluenext Technology Pte Ltd., Singapore
"The appointment of the three authorized distributors is yet another important step towards our internationali-zation. We possess a product that has created huge attention and demand in a very short period of time.
Hence, professional and trained sales partners are crucial for us in achieving our ambitious goals for growth.
As an instance of how fast we can gain foothold on a new market we can mention our Canadian distributor, Newtele Group Ltd., who has already sold Flamingo to a large number of big, local customers" quotes CellPoint Connect ApS CEO, Mr. Ib Byder.
CellPoint Connect´s Flamingo Bluetooth headset is unique with its patent-pending EarClick Technology, which uses non-allergenic pads to ergonomically fit into the folds of the ear. The headset weighs only 11 grams/0.39 ounces and combined with EarClick, it is extremely comfortable to wear. With its discreet Scandinavian design, users can wear Flamingo for hours on end, forgetting that they are even wearing the headset.
"The three new markets are all characterized by being huge growth markets in which the BlueTooth-standard has been accepted as a solution for a hands free usage of a mobile phone coincident with e.g. working or car driving. We also experience a heavy growth in the use of Flamingo as wireless headset for PCs when used for telephony" adds Mr. Byder.
The Flamingo is retailing globaly for USD 129.
