--Andrea Electronics Corporation (OTCBB: ANDR), a leading
developer of innovative digital noise reduction and echo cancellation
software technologies, today announced that its advanced Stereo
Array Microphone technology is shipping in select HP PCs and
notebooks. Andrea's Pure Audio technology provides very
high quality audio for clearer, more intelligible conversations
when making Internet phone calls, for video and web teleconferencing
or other communication services over a broadband connection.
Andrea's
Pure Audio technology enhances the microphone audio quality
on HP Pavilion Mobile notebooks, HP EliteBook notebooks, and
HP TouchSmart PCs. The addition of Pure Audio allows customers
to access audio capabilities beyond the norm for PCs and facilitates
clearer sound over VoIP.* Active noise reduction, echo cancellation
and stereo microphone array beam forming technology provides
a better user experience with more intelligible audio when
using Skype and other popular VoIP applications despite noisy
environments.
"Andrea
Electronics is working with HP to improve sound quality in
PCs," said Douglas Andrea, CEO of Andrea Electronics.

into HP PCs, customers now have professional audio capabilities
as a standard feature in a mobile notebook. Full duplex voice
communications provide clear conversations without annoying
delays or echo, and despite loud background noise -- all without
requiring any additional equipment or the need to connect
any wires."
Andrea

into the HP EliteBook, Pavilion notebooks and TouchSmart PC
screen. Pure Audio software is pre-loaded on the computers
and is integrated with audio beam forming technology to deliver
far clearer audio than previously available in PCs.
