Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Setting new standards for mobile voice clarity and personal style, the new Jawbone Bluetooth headset by Aliph represents a complete departure from the gadgetry of the mobile headset industry. Originally developed for military use in extreme environments, Jawbone features NoiseAssassin--a proprietary technology that eliminates background noise from mobile phone conversations. Jawbone is the only Bluetooth headset with a Voice Activity Sensor (VAS) that actually feels your speech, which helps Jawbone distinguish your voice from background noise.
Widely recognized as the best Bluetooth headset on the market, the new Jawbone is 50 percent smaller than the original, award-winning Jawbone, offer over 4 hours of talk time, and comes with three earbuds and four earloops for a comfortable and personalized fit.

Military-Grade NoiseAssassin Technology
Developed over years of research for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Jawbone's NoiseAssassin eliminates real world noise better than competing headset because it's the only hands free device that accurately separates human speech from ambient noise. Unmatched in its ability to remove noise from loud environments like busy streets, cars, crowded cafes, and airports, NoiseAssassin is comprised of two features unique to Jawbone: a patented Voice Activity Sensor (VAS) and proprietary Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms. Jawbone is the only Bluetooth headset with a VAS that feels the speech vibrations from your jaw. This enables Jawbone to capture the distinct frequencies of your voice. Proprietary DSP algorithms work in concert with two powerful microphones and the VAS to accurately model surrounding noise and aggressively eliminate it from the conversation.
Conventional "noise suppression" headsets do not have a Voice Activity Sensor and can only estimate when speech is occurring. This causes performance issues like voice distortion, especially in the presence background noise.
Not Just a Headset, It's Earwear
Made with premium materials like medical-grade plastic and fine leather, the new Jawbone with NoiseAssassin combines science and beauty in the most unassuming, yet richly detailed product. Every effort has been made to contain best in class noise suppression technology in a miniature form that is 50 percent smaller than the original, award-winning Jawbone.
The new Jawbone accomplishes a clean and sophisticated look thanks to invisible buttons. Touch-surface technology allows the user to operate switches by lightly pressing the outer shield. Curved and rectilinear to follow the face, the outer shield is lightly textured and inspired by three-dimensional noise abatement surfaces. The infer surface, the one touching your face and creating contact with the Voice Activity Sensor, is gently curved to be ergonomic and comfortable on your skin.

I purchased this as a birthday gift for my wife, as her Motorola 850 was starting to give her problems. You'd think that after 38 years of marriage, I would have known she did not want something sticking in her ear. I convinced her to try it and she did, for a week. I then got her a motorola H800-B slider which she loves. I inherited the Jawbone since my plantronics 510 had worn out.
I originally thought I would have problems with the little bud hitting my cheek, since I have a full beard, but there was no problem. I used the Jabra earbuds with this set to fit my ear better and they make this an almost perfect unit. I drive an 18-wheeler all week and this really helps people hear me better over all of the cab noise, which is significant in an older truck. The distance problem some others have is not an issue since the phone (LG VX-9800) hangs on a clip above the windshield. If I am not in the truck the phone is on my belt.
All in all, I am glad I made the mistake in the gift. I never would have spent this much on a set for myself, but it was well worth the money. Make sure you get the Jabra eargels though, they are 100% better than the OEM rubbers that came with the phone. I generally have my headset on for most of the day I am driving/working (10 to 14 hours) and I forget it's there.
The only downside was my remembering to grab it by the sides and keep my big fingers off the front so I did not keep hanging up on people by touching the little button on the front.

I was really, really excited about this product. My friends have had great success with the original Jawbone, and the technology is the top of the line. It arrived and was BEAUTIFUL, really like jewelery. But it just doesn't fit. I'm fairly petite and have small ears. It almost falls out of my ear, and doesn't stay close to my head. If its not in contact with your cheek the other person can't hear you. Which is a shame because the sound I hear is crystal clear. A big dissapointment.

I really like this product. I drove on the highway at 70mph alternately raising and lowering my window, and my friend couldn't tell the difference. I sounded completely clear to him in both cases -- clearer than when I was just using my phone inside my apartment!
Just to be clear, the jawbone doesn't claim to make the other person sound clear to you, rather it makes you sound clear to the other person. so if you couldn't hear the other person on your phone before, the jawbone isn't going to help you much. it does let you choose from several volume options, some which get quite loud and actually hurts my ears. Because you have to scroll through the volume settings (you can't just choose the one you want, and you can't go backwards on the list) I've found the best solution is to leave it on its quietest setting and set the bluetooth volume through my KRZR's bluetooth volume settings.
Sometimes I get static and lose signal if the phone is out of line of sight of the earpiece, including if it's in my pants pocket on the other side of my body. but i think this is because the krzr's bluetooth signal is not that strong. My friend with an HTC touch phone has no problems with his jawbone losing connection with his phone. I can walk pretty far away from my phone without static occuring if the jawbone maintains a line of sight connection with it.
the combination of beautiful form and above average noise cancellation makes for a great bluetooth headset!
