Loud Music Prevents Drivers From Hearing the Phone Ring; Cellport Provides Solution To Serious Problem


Mobile Music Enthusiasts Lament Missed Calls, But Now, Calls Get Answered

BOULDER, Colo., Dec. 9, 2003-- Cellport Systems, creator of the worldwide wireless phone Personal Telematics patent portfolio, announces the solution to missing wireless calls in a vehicle because the music is too loud.

"Many people have told us playing loud music in their car or truck prevents them from hearing their phone ring -- and therefore, they may miss an important call," says Pat Kennedy, CEO of Cellport Systems. "To solve this annoying problem, our integrated vehicle communications system automatically mutes the vehicle's CD, radio and cassette when an incoming call is received so the call can be answered."

Cellport's patented 2-Part Personal Telematics platform connects more than 100 different makes and models of portable wireless handsets with one standard vehicle interface for convenient hands-free use. Interchangeable phone pocket adaptors snap directly on the vehicle's built-in or installed system -becoming the link between the phone's capabilities and the vehicle's resources, including the stereo.

The company's Personal Telematics technology portfolio merges a wireless phone's voice, data and entertainment capabilities with a vehicle, providing convenient hands-free operation by including a speaker, microphone, voice-activated dialing and external antenna, while charging the phone. As MP3 player capabilities get included in some 2004 wireless phones, Cellport's technology will link the phone to the vehicle's stereo system, playing the music through the higher quality car or truck stereo (and muting it when a call is received).

The Cellport integrated vehicle communications system has a suggested retail price of $289.98 (installation not included) and can be viewed at www.cellport.com.
