Cobra Unveils New Internet Radio Systems - Transforming the Way People Listen to Online Radio
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cobra Electronics
(Nasdaq: COBR) announces the launch of its new Internet Radio line. Cobra's
bookshelf radio units, the CIR1000A and CIR2000A, offer an innovative way to
enjoy online broadcasts, offering superior sound quality and access to a
variety of global broadcasts. The products wirelessly stream your online
listening, letting you enjoy your favorite radio stations or podcasts free
from the confines of your computer chair.
"Gone are the days of scratchy computer speakers," said Tony Mirabelli,
senior vice president of marketing and sales. "The CIR1000A and CIR2000A will
change the way people listen to online radio. Podcasts and online radio
broadcasts have succeeded in making the radio relevant again -- and our new
Internet Radio line connects listeners to radio in a way that is both
nostalgic and groundbreaking."
The CIR1000A and CIR2000A provide access to an expanding network of over
10,000 online radio stations around the world. The unit receives and plays
streaming Internet radio using built-in wireless technology and also supports
MP3, WMA, and Real Media files via your wireless network. This gives listeners
access to their computer's entire music library.
The CIR2000A, the premium unit in the series, features SD and USB slots
for custom music inputs as well as a CD player with Gracenote(R) media
database technology that recognizes album and artist information for each
song. The unit also offers station presets for FM or Internet radio and a
full-functioning remote control.
The CIR2000A features two ten-watt stand-alone stereo speakers and
delivers sound quality unmatched by tinny computer speakers. The CIR1000A
offers a smaller design with a four-watt built-in speaker. Listeners can
tune-in to the newest Reggae beats straight fromJamaica, cheer along with
their alma mater's football game or listen to the local news of a city halfway
across the world without being bound to computer speakers or ear buds.
The CIR1000A and CIR2000A have a MSRP of $199.00 and $299.00 respectively
and will be available in March 2009. To learn more about Cobra's Internet
