[dellite]

The BlueAnt Wireless Z9 Bluetooth Headset has arrived. The Z9 leads the next generation of Bluetooth headsets with its stylish design and use of dual microphone, noise reduction technology via BlueAnt's patented Voice Isolation Technology, a revolutionary proprietary DSP software solution.

Voice Isolation Technology separates the voice signal from all background noise, enhancing and isolating all frequencies that affect voices coming in to and out of the headset and resulting in noise suppression, wind noise reduction and echo cancellation.

In addition, the Z9 incorporates two Voice Isolation modes that a user can switch between when making a call Voice Isolation Standard for use in normal everyday environments providing a natural sounding voice while removing mild background noise and Voice Isolation Max to provide superior intelligible voice clarity for use in extreme noise environments.

The device weighs 0.35 ounces and measuring just 1.5 inches in length, the Z9 is also one of the smallest Bluetooth headsets on the market today. It can be clipped neatly onto a tie, shirt, blouse or cuff when not in use and comes equipped with a stylish, translucent ear-hook further reducing its presence when worn. The device should retail for over 100USD.

The consumer and industry buzz for the Z9 began late last year when it was awarded the prestigious 2007 International Innovations Design & Engineering Award by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) for outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products.
