Bluetooth-enabled Modem, ensuring vital time-to-market advantage for developers. Wipro will also demonstrate its Bluetooth Solutions working on the Windows
NT/2K Operating System.
As part of its Automotive Solutions, Wipro is demonstrating its Hands-free Profile at the Bluetooth Congress. Wipro's hands-free Profile can be integrated with its
other Bluetooth building blocks to develop the Hands-free Car Kit. The car kit allows a user to place and receive calls at the touch of a button while driving and
keeping the mobile phone stored away, increasing roadway safety.
