West Chester, Ohio February 18, 2009 -- ESCORT Inc., maker of the world's best radar and laser detectors, today announced
that its BELTRONICS branded Pro Series GX65 Radar Detector has won a 2009 CES Innovations Award for excellence in design and
engineering. Featured in several major publications, the BELTRONICS GX65 radar detector won its Innovation Award in the Vehicle
Accessories category. "Our BELTRONICS Pro GX65 radar detector is beyond innovation - it is simply the best radar detection
you can purchase," said Don Rich, Vice-President, BELTRONICS Sales. "The GX65 directly addresses the fastest growing
threat drivers unknowingly face today - that threat is the dramatic increase in the number of speed and red light cameras being
installed all across North America. The GX65 was designed to protect drivers from this challenging threat," Rich added.
Innovation Winner: the BELTRONICS GX65 Radar Detector
It is little surprise to the engineers at ESCORT that the BELTRONICS Professional Series GX65 radar detector is a 2009
Innovation Award Winner. That's because they designed the GX65 with the same award winning technology as their other ESCORT
brand radar detectors. Sister and peer to the PASSPORT 9500ix, also a 2009 Innovation Award Winner, the GX65 shares the
industry's top spot for the best long-range detection on all radar and laser bands and instant-on POP. But this is only the
beginning.
The GX65 brings major innovations to the radar detector category that competitors simply are not capable of producing.
The GX65 and GPS
First, BELTRONICS starts with GPS technology. Built-in GPS technology allows the GX65 to solve the problem of annoying false
alerts created by multiple sources. The GX65 is cleverly designed to allow the user to mark known false alert locations,
automatic doors for example, by indexing the specific signal frequency and exact location. Once indexed, the GX65 is able to
reject that false alert source. With the GX65, drivers get permanent relief from false alerts.
GX65: Innovation at its best
Truly ground-breaking is the GX65's smart design that gives it the ability to tackle head on the fastest growing threat drivers
face today - the increasing push for turning on speed cameras and red light cameras ubiquitously all across North America. The
GX65 comes preloaded with the North American red light and fixed position speed camera database for North America. This
database, combined with the GX65's GPS knowledge, provides the ability to warn drivers of approaching traffic and ticketing
threats. And the GX65 is prepared to remain current - web ready, the GX65's database can be easily updated via the BELTRONICS
website.
