    "Visteon's multimedia products, like the MACH(R) MP3 System and Jukebox,
provide consumers convenient access to their entire digital music collection
while on the road," said John Slosar, Visteon Corporation's Director of North
American/Asian Telematics/Multimedia Systems Product Development.  "Both
products demonstrate Visteon's commitment to providing consumers new, leading-
edge products that have user-friendly features."
    The MACH(R) MP3 System combines compressed file playback technology and
efficient memory storage to create truly flexible audio, capable of
integrating all sources of audio use for the home and in the vehicle.  The
system's 650-megabyte memory capacity allows consumers the convenience of 10
hours of personalized music on one CD.
    The system features anti-shock, fast-forward and full-disc shuffle modes
and a "Fast Track," which enables listeners to more quickly scan the 10 hours
of music.  The system, which also can play regular music CDs, comes in five
different colors to provide consumers with a personalized, unique look.  It is
easy to install, and can be done in a matter of minutes.
    The MACH(R) MP3 Jukebox, powered by PhatNoise(TM), stores up to 500 hours
of personalized music, enabling consumers to bring their entire music
collection into the vehicle.  MACH(R) MP3 Music Manager, powered by
PhatNoise(TM), software organizes and uploads music files from the computer
and into a palm-sized, removable storage cartridge.  A docking station allows
the cartridge to interface with the computer.  The portable cartridge is then
connected to the existing vehicle stereo, which can be conveniently installed
in the trunk, glove box or under a seat and uses the same cable connections as
a CD changer.
