Industry News: FINIS Announces SwiMP3 2G, Underwater MP3 Player

LIVERMORE, California, October 25. FINIS, the worldwide leader in technical swimming development and provider of select training equipment for the U.S. Olympic Swim Team, announces the immediate availability of the SwiMP3® 2G, an upgraded version of their award-winning underwater MP3 player that holds up to 2GB of your favorite workout tunes. The SwiMP3® 2G utilizes patented bone-conduction technology to deliver clear sound underwater, perfect for swimmers and triathletes looking to eliminate the watery silence of swimming lap after lap. The SwiMP3® 2G which offers twice as much music as the original version for a total of 30 hours or approximately 500 songs, is now available for $159.99 at at www.FINISInc.com/swimp3/, Amazon.com and Best Buy.

The unique and patented bone conduction technology utilized in the FINIS SwiMP3® 2G takes enjoying music to another level by transmitting high-fidelity sound underneath the water. As FINIS holds the international patent on bone conduction technology, standard players rely on the transmission of sound through air or water, which causes the swimmer to hear distorted sound. Humans normally hear through air conduction, but because there is no air underneath the water, bone conduction provides the clearest sound quality possible. The sound vibrations can be directly transferred from the cheekbone to the inner ear, giving the swimmer the ultimate sensory experience whether engaged in training workouts or recreational activities.

"We created the SwiMP3® 2G specifically for swimmers so they could continually swim to the crystal clear undistorted sound of the music that motivates them," says John Mix, President of FINIS. Our new version of the SwiMP3 features 2GB of storage that can hold up to 500 of your favorite tunes and is free of cumbersome ear buds."
