Parrot, a
Paris based company, specializes in voice-enabled
mobile devices and accessories. Its latest offering,
the DriveBlue Bluetooth car kit can turn your
Bluetooth enable cell phone into a hands-free and
headset free handset with either the push of a
button or with voice features. The DriveBlue car kit
cuts the cable clutter in your car and does not
require any charging. On top of that, it doesn't
cost you a penny in the installation department.
DriveBlue MC1000 is an
installation-free car kit built on Bluetooth wireless
technology. It enables you to enjoy a hands-free, cordless
speakphone conversation while driving. Just plug the device
into your car’s cigarette lighter socket and you’re ready to
go. The smart design makes DriveBlue MC1000 fit to various
cars.
Features
Not much
bigger than the Sony Ericsson P800 handset, the DriveBlue car kit comes in a stylish and compact
form. It's made of black hard plastic with a silver
face cover, and a cigarette-lighter jack extends out
at a ~45-degree angle. There is a large speaker
grill on the front face of the car kit, along with a
small LED, two large buttons for answering and
ending calls and a smaller grill for the mic. There
is a volume rocker on one side of the kit and an
external mic connector on the other. DriveBlue does
not need to be charged: all you need to do is to
plug it into your cigarette lighter, start your car
engine and it's ready to go.
The DriveBlue card kit supports both Handsfree and
Headset audio profiles, and provides various
features that are enabled on specific phone models.
Pairing via Bluetooth is fairly easy and quite
similar on all the phones we've tested. When you
plug the car kit in for the first time, it will tell
you when it's ready to pair. Once the pairing is
successful, you are ready to use the DriveBlue.
There are two ways you can take an incoming call or
make an outgoing call: use the green and red buttons
on the DriveBlue and dial numbers on your phone, or
use voice dialing and voice command features if your
phone comes with these features. To initiate a call
with the buttons on the DriveBlue, you will need to
enter the phone number on your cell phone first,
then hit the green button. To take an incoming call,
all you need to do is to hit the green button and
hit the red button to end a call. The green buttons
also works as redialing (hold it down for 2 seconds
to redial the last number), call waiting and
transferring calls to the handset.
Voice dialing works flawlessly on all phones with
the existing voice tags without training through
DriveBlue's voice recognition software. If your
phone is set to answer automatically through headset
or hands-free mode, the DriveBlue will pick up the
phone automatically when there is an incoming call.
Depending on the handset models you have, you can
even use voice commands such as Answer, Dial, Hang
up to initiate, end or answer phone calls without
touching the phone or the car kit. If you have
certain models of Sony Ericsson mobile phones such
as the T610, you can sync with the DriveBlue, access
the DriveBlue menu on your phone and turn on
features like Caller ID.
The voice quality through the speaker is amazingly
loud and clear. Use the volume control on your phone
and on the car kit to adjust the speaker volume. The
voice quality coming through the mic is pretty good
as well, thanks to the Digital Signal Processor that
cancels echo and reduces noise. In our test, the sound quality
incoming and outgoing was plenty good enough without
the external mic. The only imperfection it has seems
to be overzealous noise reduction: if the caller on
the other end talks at the same time you are
talking, the DriveBlue mutes the caller to give you
the sound advantage.
