CSR is working with independent technical support company TMTI (Talk Me Through It) to drive Bluetooth device compatibility and enhance end-user experience of mobile Bluetooth technology With CSR's assistance, TMTI has introduced an industry approved series of tests to ensure an enhanced level of interoperability at the user level to build on the Bluetooth qualification programme

Devices which have passed this testing stage will be allowed to display a quality mark hologram, bearing the TMTI and CSR logo, on its packaging.

T-Mobile is the first major retailer to adopt the scheme with its launch of the new Southwing SH305 Bluetooth headset.

"We have provided technical support to end-user mobile phone customers since the company was created and discovered a high proportion of customer problems related to Bluetooth were linked to compatibility and pairing issues", explained Crispin Thomas, TMTI.

"By working with the world leader in Bluetooth technology, our independent interoperability testing is further supported by the experts in this field".

Niall Gillespie, Interoperability Group Manager, CSR commented: "A high level of interoperability testing is done at the Bluetooth silicon level at Unplugfests, and this quality mark programme ensures that this level of interoperability is taken forward into the consumer marketplace".

Gillespie continued: "This independent quality mark is a great idea for consumers who worry about buying a Bluetooth product, as it will provide confidence that testing has been performed by an independent technical support company like TMTI".
