The Power Talk Box System is a completely new concept in Handsfree Industrial grade Hardline communication equipment.

These products will expand sales of existing equipment and provide communication solutions for entirely new markets. The Power Talk Box products are designed and awaiting completion of the intrinsically safe testing process. Shipments to customers are expected to begin before the end of December 1999.

Finally, there is the SR65i, a completely new line of Intrinsically Safe Portable Radio Accessories that will attach to virtually any portable radio on the market today. The flexible design and full line of accessories allows the product to address multiple applications such as Law Enforcement, Military, Rescue, Special Forces, Petro-Chemical, to name only a few. It will allow communication while inside Nuclear, Chemical & Biological Protective suits, or in high noise environments even while wearing facemask equipment. The complete SR65i product line will be available in early 2000.

Over the past seven years, CON-SPACE has established itself as the leader in Hardline voice communication equipment for Confined Space applications. This market position is reflected in the Company's sales growth, averaging 34% per year since the company began.
