America Hears Offers Free Demo Version of Software for Download

America Hears, the premier Internet distributor and manufacturer of digital hearing aids, has made available its Virtual Office 2.0 (VO 2.0) software for download on its website, www.americahears.com. Visitors to the site can download a full version of the hearing aid software to explore its features, although a user must own an America Hears hearing aid in order to fully utilize the program.

The exclusive VO 2.0 program enables owners of America Hears digital hearing aids to adjust the hearing aid programming themselves in their own home or to request a programming change via the Internet. Previously, customers were mailed a CD containing the hearing aid software with their free information kit, a process that could take several days. Now, the entire program can be downloaded directly from the America Hears site in less than 20 minutes (with a high-speed Internet connection).

"We felt it was important to make VO 2.0 available on our website not only so that our current and future customers could easily access this innovative hearing aid software but also so that those interested in America Hears products could give it a try," said Henry Smith, president of America Hears. "This new, updated version of our exclusive Virtual Office system has important features that we added in response to customer requests, and we believe that anyone who downloads this hearing aid software will immediately see its usefulness."

VO 2.0, which was released in November 2007, offers such enhancements to the original Virtual Office as updated fitting reports, faster programming times, and a new interface that is easier to use to adjust a hearing aid. The hearing aid software works with all digital hearing aids from America Hears, including the new Liberty open-fit hearing aid.
