Sonomax announces final milestone success

	    NEXT STOP CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW IN LAS VEGAS

	    MONTREAL, Dec. 30 /CNW Telbec/ - Sonomax Hearing Healthcare Inc. (SHH:TSX
Venture) announces that it has completed Phase V, its final milestone in the
development of its off-the-shelf, self-fitting, custom earpieces. The company
is now in a position to roll out its prototype V4(R), establishing Sonomax as
the world's only producer of instant self-fitting custom earpieces.
	    "All of our products and technologies have been validated and we have now
produced a game-changer in comfort, sound quality, and hearing safety for all
industries and companies whose products have an in-ear component." said Nick
Laperle, Sonomax's President & CEO. "Delivering outstanding frequency
response, the soft and pliable earpiece material continuously adapts to the
changing shape of the ear canal, which permits long periods of comfortable and
safe use throughout the day."
	    Added Adam Schwartz, Sonomax's COO, "I can't say enough about our
dedicated R&D team; they accomplished a miracle. Their technological
breakthrough changes everything; it makes us a world leader in sound isolation
with a stable technology that is cost competitive, scalable for mass market
consumption, and whose breakthrough characteristic, the V4 automatic fitting
system, enables any consumer to make a high performing custom-fitted earpiece
on-the-spot for themselves. While the Sonomax R&D team will continue to test
and adjust over the next few months, this has now solved the only impediment
to Sonomax's expansion technology becoming ready for mass customization."
	    With the final milestone behind it, Sonomax's licensing team has now
lined up over 20 meetings with major OEMs at the Consumer Electronics Show
(CES) in Las Vegas from January 6th to 11th 2010. The objective of these
meetings will be to start the process of selling a series of non-exclusive
technology licenses to a carefully chosen, limited number of highly successful
consumer electronics, industrial and military companies representing a
cross-section of multi-billion dollar vertical markets and subset product
categories.
