Nokia introduces phone Device for the hearing impaired - Good news for hearing impaired:
Nokia recently announced the release of a new cell-phone for users with hearing aids: The Wireless Loop set is compatible with Bluetooth-ready handsets, essentially transforming the user's hearing aid into a headset. The device has adjustable side tone levels, optimized volume range, single-button calling, and a vibrating alert. The Nokia Wireless Loop set works with T-coil equipped hearing aids or cochlear implants, and slips around the user's neck.
The Nokia Wireless Loop set provides hearing aid users with a hassle-free and hands-free connection to their mobile phones where in sound is amplified more efficiently, while the distance between the phone and hearing aid means that the possibility of interference is greatly reduced. The loop set filters out background noise, which increases speech discrimination, and offers excellent audio quality in a range of environments such as the car, office, or even in windy conditions outdoors."
