Abstrakt: The new Jawbone, made by a closely held San Francisco company called Aliph, is 50% smaller than the original Jawbone, which I reviewed in 2006. It continues to boast the original Jawbone’s signature feature: a remarkable ability to suppress background noise and isolate the wearer’s voice...
Great sound. Serious upgrade in wearability, even with fewer options. Doesnt weight you down like the older model. Easiest syncing headset ever; starts up in pairing mode the first time you turn it on.
Still relies on a proprietary power connector that isnt the same as the first model, either. Design cues are a little bit Gucci for some wearers (especially Wired geeks). A quick spin through the manual a must to understand how to operate invisible button...

Abstrakt: The Aliph Jawbone 2's streamlined design means that the buttons cannot be seen, but they can be felt. The talk button is carefully hidden at the front of the headset with a silver LED that can also be turned off. The Noise Assassin button starts canceling...
Abstrakt: Hands-free mobile communication is becoming a more popular judging by the number of people who appear to be talking to themselves as I walk past. Sometimes I feel tempted to join in the conversation. ...
Fans of the earlier Jawbone - and there were deservedly many for what was the coolest-looking, most reliable and easiest-to-use Bluetooth headset around - will enjoy the smaller, subtler new model with significant improvements to call quality. The but...
