Motorola Roadster, CommandOne and Finiti unveiled

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

It wasn't just phones that Motorola had to show us; the company also has three new Bluetooth devices, including a pair of headsets – the CommandOne and Finiti – and an in-car speakerphone called the Motorola Roadster.  Clipping to your sun visor, the Roadster has dual-microphones, noise reduction, an FM transmitter for piping calls and music through your car stereo, and – when used with an Android 2.2 phone – MotoSpeak for text-to-speech and speech-to-text.

As for the Motorola CommandOne, that too has MotoSpeak support together with CrystalTalk noise reduction.  You can also instruct it to accept or reject calls verbally.  Thanks to MultiPoint you can have two phones connected simultaneously, and a quick-charge feature supposedly offers 2.5hrs talktime from a mere 15 minutes of rejuicing.

FInally, the Motorola Finiti has similar specs to the CommandOne, but throws in stealth-mode which translates throat vibrations into speech.  That way, Motorola claims, you can maintain a conversation in up to 40mph winds.

Full specs of all three new models in the press releases below.  They'll all go on sale sometime this quarter; no sign of official pricing as yet.

Motorola Roadster™: Clearest Calls from Your Car

Stay in touch on the road with Roadster™, the latest Bluetooth®1 in-car speakerphone from Motorola's Elite Series. Roadster's dual-microphone noise cancellation technology makes sure you can be heard over road noise and blocks out background noise better than any other speakerphone currently on the market. Equipped with MotoSpeak™, Roadster reads aloud text messages and allows you to dictate your text response, so you can stay in touch while on the road.

Industry-leading Call Clarity

Roadster keeps your conversations clear and eliminates background noise with dual-microphone technology for superior noise cancellation. You can even listen to your calls over your car speakers by using the FM transmitter. The loud, 2-watt speaker works to combat cabin noise and wind, so you can focus more on the road and less on what's going on around you.

The Smartest Way to Stay in Touch

MotoSpeak features bring you the latest text-to-speech and speech-to-text technology. Hear your text messages immediately and then dictate your reply. MotoSpeak even announces who is calling from your contact list. Simply download the free MotoSpeak application to your Android-powered 2.2 device and sync with Roadster, ensuring that you keep your eyes off your phone and on the road.

Intuitive and User-Friendly

Roadster automatically turns on when you get in the car and off when you leave, ensuring you are always hands-free. You can even answer or ignore incoming calls with a single word and use the dedicated voice-dial button to keep focused on the road. The smartly-placed buttons provide easy access to the most-used functions, and audible voice prompts give you updates on Roadster's battery life and more. Perfect for long drives or on-the-road business calls, Roadster has up to 20 hours of talk time2, so you'll never have to worry about cutting calls short.

Advanced Features

Stream music via A2DP on Roadster's powerful speaker, or over your car's speakers using the FM transmitter. Advanced Multipoint lets you pair Roadster with two devices, so you can take calls from your business and personal phones at the same time. Staying productive on the go has never been easier.
