AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 22 /PRNewswire/ — HTC Corp. (TAIEX: 2498; “HTC”), the leading provider of Microsoft(R) Windows Mobile(R) based smart devices,
and Parrot(R), a leader in wireless peripherals around the mobile phone, today announced an alliance to develop improved compatibility and overall user experience between the companies’ products. This alliance will see HTC working closely with Parrot to support product roadmaps, marketing efforts and channel development to provide an enhanced complimentary solution for customers.
“While HTC smart devices offer users one device for all their content, Parrot provides the easy-to-use wireless peripherals to release that content wherever and whenever the user wants,” said Henri Seydoux, founder and CEO of Parrot. “This enables HTC users to maximize the use of their devices through Parrot’s technology.”
Parrot manufactures a wide range of wireless mobile phone accessories,
from Bluetooth(R) handsfree car kits to wireless digital picture frames and
Hi-Fi speaker systems. Parrot’s product range includes wireless peripherals
to suit every environment for HTC devices - be it in the car, at home or in
the office.
“By working in tandem with Parrot we can enhance our offering of
mobility and connectivity and add real value for all customers by providing
them expanded capabilities for their devices,” said Florian Seiche, Vice
President, HTC Europe.
HTC has been manufacturing powerful Microsoft(R) Windows Mobile(R)
based Smartphones and PDAs for more than ten years. The company launched
its own consumer brand in 2006 and has since made great strides into both
the corporate and consumer mobile markets. HTC’s diverse range of converged
mobile devices offers choices for consumers, whatever their mobile needs.
Its latest developments include the new Touch family of products featuring
the HTC Touch(TM), HTC Touch Dual(TM) and HTC Touch Cruise(TM).
All three devices incorporate HTC’s touch-driven TouchFLO(R) interface
which provides an intuitive user experience. These devices integrate
seamlessly with Parrot accessories delivering more choices for consumers.
For instance, users can listen to their MP3 collection with the wireless
Parrot PARTY to create instant entertainment on the move.
